'Days of our Lives' Bringing Back Dr. Valerie Grant

Soap Opera Digest is reporting that Days of our lives has put out a casting call Dr. Valerie Grant. She is described as a gorgeous African-American woman in her mid-50s.

The casting notice reads: "Courage and perseverance are two character traits that people admire her for the most. And while her experiences might have hardened other people and made them cynical, Valerie has grown into a wise and compassionate person – who still occasionally gets tripped up by her own mistakes."

The show is seeking experienced actors for the recurring role, which will begin taping in mid-to-late May.

The role of Valerie has been played by three actresses: Tina Andrews (1975-1977), Rose Fonseca (1977-1978), and Diane Sommerfield (1981-1982).
