Career
Anthony Geary made his television debut in an episode of Room 222 and has since starred in All in the Family, The Mod Squad, Mannix, Marcus Welby, M.D., The Streets of San Francisco, and Barnaby Jones. In addition, he appeared in the NBC soap opera Bright Promise from 1971 to 1972.
His character on ‘General Hospital’ began as a hit man and evolved into a rapist who fell in love with and married his victim, Laura Webber (played by Genie Francis). His character’s on-screen marriage to Laura Webber in 1981 is the highest-rated soap opera episode of all time.
Throughout the next few years, he appeared in a number of theaters, television shows, and films. Despite the success of his role as Luke Spencer, filmmakers like Oliver Stone labeled Geary as a “soap actor.” In order to distance himself from GH, he consciously sought a role in “Weird Al” Yankovic’s film debut UHF (1989), that of the quietly quirky scientist Philo (named for television pioneer Philo Farnsworth).
In order to play someone other than Luke, the actor returned to General Hospital in 1991 as Luke’s cousin and look-alike Bill Eckert. However, due to negative viewer reactions, the character was killed off, and he returned to the role of Luke in 1993. He appeared in nearly 50 theatrical productions, including an award-winning one-man show called Human Scratchings in 1996.
