Outstanding
Supporting Actress In A Drama Series
"Susan Haskell distinguished
herself for her portrayal of One Life to Live's anguished rape victim,
Marty Saybrooke. While accepting her award, Susan remembered
One Life
to Live's viewers when she declared her desire to 'share this with
the men and women who wrote to me and shared their stories. Thank you so
much.'"

"Marty is a
very unusual name, but one that fit my character. Our head writer at the
time, Michael Malone, relied heavily on symbolism when he named a new character.
For instance, Marty was from a very wealthy family, so Michael chose the
last name Saybrooke after Old Saybrooke, an upper-crust town in Connecticut,
and Marty because it sounds a little boyish and rebellious."

"As much as she tried, Marty
Saybrooke could never seem to get Todd out of her life. Following the rape,
an ironic twist of fate brought Todd and Marty together when the prison
van transferring him to a maximum security prison crashed, and Todd escaped
yet again. Incredibly, the van hit a car driven by Marty Saybrooke, and
carrying little C. J. Roberts and Jessica Buchanan. Instead of running
to freedom, Todd saved their lives. His act of heroism warranted a full
pardon from the governor."

"Marty Saybrooke
and Dylan Moody proved to be each other's best friend… and before long,
they fell in love. Laid-back and easygoing, Dylan offered Marty a shoulder
to lean on in the aftermath of the rape trial, while Marty helped Dylan
(whose wife cheated on him) to trust women again.
