SUZANNE ROGERS

Emmy Award-winning Suzanne Rogers is internationally known for playing Maggie Simmons Horton on the daytime television series Days of Our Lives from 1974 to 2003. In a rare turn of events, head writer James E. Reilly reversed her character's murder. In the summer of 2004, it has been revealed that she did not die, and returned home to her Husband Mickey who ended up being married to Bonnie Lockhart.

Rogers was diagnosed with the rare muscle disease myasthenia gravis in 1984, but is currently in remission. The courageous actress convinced writers to have her character Maggie diagnosed with the same disease on the show, so she could educate viewers.
