“I’ve had a great experience with this character, Mike Corbin, and all the wonderful people that I am working with,” he said. “The Alzheimer’s storyline touches a lot of people in their lives, so I appreciate having a chance to have that exchange and interaction with people.”
Gail was the recipient of the 2019 Daytime Emmy Award for “Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series” for his stellar portrayal of Mike Corbin on General Hospital. “That felt really cool,” he admitted. “I really enjoyed it. Years before, I had gotten a couple of nominations for another show, Barney Miller.”
On being an actor in the digital age, he said, “There is a lot more content being created these days with all of these streaming services. The entertainment business has certainly changed a lot from the days of Barney Miller when there were three channels and PBS. Life has changed for all of us in the digital age, though, now there are many people that are growing up in it.”
For young and aspiring actors, Gail said, “If you approach it as a way to grow and learn, and become a more fulfilled person, then, you will get value out of it, and you have good relationships.”
On the title(s) of the current chapter of his life, he responded, “Do It Now” and “Now or Never.”
He defined the word success as “fulfillment and accomplishment.”
For his dedicated fans, he concluded, “We are kindred spirits, in some kind of way.”
