Two short years later Sarah auditioned for a lead role in the ABC daytime series "General Hospital." In what would soon become an oft-told story, Sarah dazzled the producers with a fearless performance that instantly won her the role of tortured troublemaker Carly Benson. The fearless audition proved to be an indicator of things to come as Sarah began a five-year journey as one of daytime TV's most memorable characters.
