At age 84, Frances still goes to the studio three times a week to tape her role as "Alice Horton" in the popular series "Days of Our Lives." Prior to her 33 years on the soap, she was a movie and theater actress. Her screen debut was "Stage Door" with Katherine Hepburn, Lucille Ball and Ginger Rogers in the '30's. Her final film was the '60's cult classic "Seconds," in which she starred opposite Rock Hudson. From 1966 on, Reid has enjoyed the fast pace of serialized television.

QUOTE:
"I don't think I have any fears left. Death no! That's very calm, everything being the end.Except I resent that I'll be dead and won't be able to see certain things. I was thinking today about the expansion and contraction of the universe and if they'd find out more about the black hole. I thought, "Damn it. I won't be around for that."
