Lucci thinks it’s unfair that the soap segment is seen as the “whipping boy” of the TV industry. “There are so many talented and hard-working people [in soaps],” says Lucci, who credits daytime TV with opening doors for her into a wider range of show business. After her starring role in Annie Get Your Gun on Broadway, Lucci was approached by Regis Philbin about sharing the stage on a nightclub tour. The pair is currently traveling the country, performing with a 22-piece orchestra. Philbin, who calls Lucci “one of the great actresses in television history,” gives her high marks for her cabaret work as well: “She’s really a terrific entertainer and a wonderful singer.”

Lucci’s artistic excellence allowed her the opportunity to expand to luminous careers in theater and cabaret. For the last three years, Susan’s sensational nightclub performances opening for Regis Philbin have dazzled audiences as she graced the stage to sold-out crowds and performed solo concerts across the country. In October 2001, Lucci debuted her cabaret act at “Feinstein’s at the Regency” working with director John McDaniels and Shawn Gough. In his review of Lucci, Rex Reed stated, “This is a gal that sends you home smiling.”

Lucci is already working with designers to create the next group of pieces to be layered into the existing line. HSN will help establish the Susan Lucci brand by supporting the actress' extension into hand-bags and shoes, both set to launch in August. "We're thrilled to have her," said Kulesza. "It's a good marriage." Lucci said.

Lucci's father, Victor, was a first-generation American. Phyllis Diller, contrary to various internet rumors, is not her mother.[4] Lucci has been married since September 13, 1969 to Austrian businessman Helmut Huber. They are the parents of soap opera actress Liza Huber (who plays Gwen Hotchkiss on the daytime soap Passions) and Andreas Huber (who did not follow his mother and sister into an acting career). She became a grandmother when her daughter, Liza, gave birth on December 23, 2006 — Lucci's 60th birthday. The baby was named Royce Alexander.[5]
