Since the fall of 2000 Chad Brannon has been wowing viewers of ABC's General Hospital with his emotinally charged, multi-faceted potrayal of one time thug "Zander Smith". Although he was originally cast only to appear on the show for six weeks, Chad's ability to bring emotional depth and vulnerability to the part earned him not only the adoration of fans but also an extended stint on the show.

That might seem to be most young actors' idea of success, but Chad's fans wanted more for him, and they were not going to be satisfied until he had a long-term contract. So, while he was working hard on the set, they were working hard behind the scenes-organizing letter and postcard writing campaigns, turning out in droves to see him at personal appearances and clogging the GH comment line with calls on days his scenes aired.

All the hard work paid off on both sides of the camera, and Chad was signed to the show for three years, thanks in large part to the fans. They were smart enough to know a good thing when they saw it...and tenacious enough to go the extra mile to make their voices heard.
