Another Passions alum has landed a new gig on daytime. McKenzie Westmore (ex-Sheridan Crane) has landed the recurring role of Dr. Sinclair on All My Children. Dr. Sinclair appears as a psychiatrist at Oak Haven who is tending to the recovery of Annie Lavery.
Westmore appeared on Passions for nine years as Sheridan Crane, the unlucky-in-love-and-life heroine of the now-cancelled NBC soap. An original cast member, Westmore remained with the sometimes campy soap for its entire run.
While Westmore's role was originally conceived as a short-term engagement, there are already rumblings that the actress could find an extended stay in Pine Valley if things play out properly. Dr. Sinclair will have a secret tie to a character already on the canvas that results in a surprising storyline twist.
Earlier this year, Westmore's former co-star Eric Martsolf (ex-Ethan Winthrop) and her former on-screen love, Galen Gering (ex-Luis Lopez-Fitzgerald), were both hired by NBC's Days of our Lives.
Westmore started airing on All My Children on December 12th.
