Oliver Fish (often referred to onscreen as Fish) is a fictional character on the #ABC #daytimeDrama #OneLifeToLive. He was portrayed by #ScottEvans from January 15, 2008, through April 12, 2010. The June 2009 announcement that the character would be romantically linked to another man in an ongoing story line came to wider attention when #PatriciaMauceri (#CarlottaVega) was replaced after reportedly voicing personal religious objections to her character's involvement in the plot.

"One Life to Live" star Erika Slezak has signed a 'short-term contract' to appear on "General Hospital". Slezak says on social media she does not know who she is playing or when her episodes will air.
