Genie Francis has an impressive net worth thanks to her successful career in General Hospital.

The actress is most known for her portrayal of Laura Spencer on the ABC TV series, which she has been in for almost 50 years.

The Long Island native moved from New York to Los Angeles with her father, when she was six years old, in pursuit of a Hollywood career, and the bold move certainly paid off. Today, she has a net worth of over $25 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth.

Her first role was on ABC's TV series, Family, where she played the character of Alice Dennison. The momentum continued and she became a household name thanks to General Hospital.

In 2007, she was awarded her first Daytime Emmy Award for the Outstanding Supporting Actress category.

She also went on star in NBC's Days of Our Lives, ABC's All My Children, and CBS's The Young and the Restless.
