Trivia
  • Cady returned to "All My Children" (1970) in 2006 to create a new dynamic with fans through her blog, "Confessions of a Mad Soap Star," at www.cadysconfessions.com, as well as other innovative audience interactions.
  • Her status with "As the World Turns" (1956) was concidered somewhat unusual. When she joined the show in 2002, the role of Rosanna Cabot was a recurring one. However, she became so popular with fans that "ATWT" tried to get her to sign a contract. She refused, but the show still continued to feature her prominently, which is usually not the case for recurring characters. She even won the 2004 Daytime Emmy for Outstanding Supporting Actress. Shortly before that, she finally agreed to sign a one-year contract with "ATWT". When the deal expired she went back to recurring status with the show for awhile before she ulitimately left, soon rejoining "All My Children" (1970) in her popular role of Dixie Cooney Martin.
  • During her time off of "All My Children" (1970)a stock image still appeared in the opening credits.
  • 2002: Daytime viewers were shocked to see McClain`s performance and transition from "All My Children" (1970) to "As The World Turns" (1956)from the beloved role of AMC`s `innocent` Dixie Cooney to "ATWT"`s bitchy Rosanna Cabot. For 13 years fans were used to her familiar role as a heroine to a villain. When she departed "AMC" she posted a letter on Soap Opera Central online telling her "All My Children" fans to go and watch her on "As The World Turns". AMC and ATWT are network rival soaps. Months later on "ATWT" she earned an Emmy nomination for "Outstanding Supporting Actress", but unfortunatly her character on "AMC" was killed off, ending the popular Tad and Dixie romance.
  • Cady is committed to charity work, has been a member of the Junior Boardof the Enterprise Foundation and also worked with RARE to develop a radio soap opera for the Wildward Islands of the Carribean. She is devoted to helping New Orleans recover.
  • Began her career at age 9 in the Stuck Band-Aid`s commercial.
  • Sings, plays guitar, dances, and is an accomplished artist.
  • Has been professional actress since age 10.
  • Started going by "Cady McClain" in the 1980s because her agent like the way it looked better than "Katie McClain".
