Jada Rowland (born February 23, 1943) is an American actress.
A native of Staten Island, Rowland was born into a family of actors and artists. Rowland is the sister of actor Jeffrey Rowland and actress Gigi Anderson. Her brother played her husband on As the World Turns (Dr. Dan Stewart), although they appeared on the show in different years. Rowland's sister appeared on The Secret Storm as Peggy Bennett during the time Rowland was working on the show.
She has appeared on Broadway and television daytime soap operas. She has appeared as Dr. Susan Stewart on As the World Turns and Carolee Simpson Aldrich, R. N. #2 on The Doctors starting September 7, 1976, until the final episode on December 31, 1982. [1] She later appeared on the prime-time serial The Hamptons. She was offered an audition for the Dustin Hoffman film Tootsie, since that feature film incorporated a fictional soap opera, Southwest General, but she rejected it.
In her signature role, Rowland portrayed Amy Ames Britton Kincaid on The Secret Storm for most of its 20-year run. [2] This character grew up in real time instead of the common soap-opera "rapid aging", where a young actor is replaced by an older one to age the character more quickly.
Published children's books she has illustrated include Bringing the Farmhouse Home (by Gloria Whelan, Simon & Schuster Books for Young Readers, 1992); Miss Tizzy (by Libba Moore Gray, Simon & Schuster Books for Young Readers, 1993); The Statue of Liberty (by Lucille Recht Penner, Random House, 1995); and Raising the Roof (by Ronald Kidd, Habitat for Humanity International, 1995).
