Robin Mattson was 10 years old when she was selected to play the juvenile lead in Ivan Tors' Namu the Killer Whale (1966). Few of Mattson's adult roles have been in family fare: most of her films bear such hothouse titles as Candy Stripe Nurses (1974) and Phantom of the Paradise (1974). Mattson is best known for her extensive work on television soap operas. She has starred as Heather Grant Webber on General Hospital, Hope Bauer on The Guiding Light, Delia on Ryan's Hope and Gina Capwell Timmons on Santa Barbara, and also appeared regularly on All My Children.
