After her contract with the studio expired, Linda joined the ABC TV soap opera ‘’One Life To Live’’ in 1978, and gradually gained fame in the acting industry, being a part of the show for two years. Her next role aa novelist Felicia Gallant in the TV show ‘’Another World’’ remains one of her most critically praised roles, especially as the show was ran from 1982 until 1999, adding significantly to her net worth.
