Filling the shoes and (sic) replacing a popular actress and an equally popular character. She jumped through every hoop imaginable and endured some of the worst backlash in All My Children memory with a smile on her face, a determination to do her best with what she was given, and never a complaint. Kudos to Singh for surviving 2007" Sabine's performance as Greenlee Smythe ultimately earned her a place on the shortlist for the daytime Emmy Award.
