In-store appearance by One Life to Live‘s Robin Strasser

Ever wonder what it would be like to step into the gown of an Emmy-winning actress? Now is your chance to find out! On Sunday, August 16, come meet Robin Strasser at Housing Works’ 77th St. Thrift Shop. Strasser, who has played the glamorous Dorian Lord on One Life to Live for an amazing 30 years, has generously donated a full rack of clothes and truckload of furniture to Housing Works, and she’ll be posing for pictures with fans and telling personal stories behind each item. The soap’s star donations include one-of-a-kind items like a gorgeous Paris-made, two-piece gown that she only wore once—at the 2005 Daytime Emmy Awards! “I’m bringing it on…with my own furniture, clothing and costumes! You’ve only got ”�One Life To Give’ and 100 per cent of anything you buy goes to keeping the good work of Housing Works working,”� Strasser says. For those who can’t make the in-store event, Housing Works will also auction some of Strasser’s donated items online. Starting Aug. 12, you can bid on a selection of Strasser’s donations at Shophousingworks.com and see the online auction items in the window of the 77th St store. The online auction closes at 7pm on August 24.
