1. SOUNDBITE (English) Stephen A. Smith, sports TV personality, actor:
"I’ve been a part of ‘General Hospital’ for seven years. Very fortunate and blessed. Frank Valentini is the executive producer. Maurice Benard and Laura Wright and Steve Burton are the stars. They’re all genuine, dear friends of mine who have helped me along the way. I’m not an actor. I didn’t go to school, train for it or anything like that. I’m somebody that they felt had a natural gift but when I walk in there, they school me every single day on what will make me better. And I’m incredibly grateful for any opportunity that I have to be in their presence and to learn from them along with my buddy Eric Braeden who stars as Victor Newman on ‘Young and the Restless’ is a dear friend of mine as well. When you have friends in your life like that, it just says a lot about what you’re doing, how you’re going about doing it, because they’re not going to support people who are not worthy of it. So I recognize that, I’m appreciative of it, and I’m very, very grateful and thankful for it."
