Laurence Lau (born May 10, 1954) is an American soap opera actor. He was born in Long Beach, California.
One of his first roles was on the comedy/drama Eight Is Enough. He first became popular by playing the role of rich kid Greg Nelson on All My Children (1981-1986), in which his character got involved with a girl from the other side of the tracks, Jenny Gardner (Kim Delaney). Other notable soap roles include Dr. Jamie Frame on Another World (1986-1990) and succeeding Kale Browne as attorney Sam Rappaport on One Life to Live (2001-2003).
In 2007, Lau played Greeber in Scituate[1], a play written by Martin Casella and directed by David Hilder, at TBG Arts Mainstage in New York City. Soap opera critic for Atlantic Canada's Breakfest Television Andrew Gaunce claimed that this role would solidify Laurence as a big time soap opera actor. On May 20th, 2008 Lau will return to All My Children as Greg Nelson. He will catch up with old pals Jesse and Angie Hubbard and brother in law Tad Martin.
