Speaking to Soap Opera Digest in a new interview, Moses says that acting sure does run deep in his family. He said, “I have six brothers, and my eldest brother [Rick Moses] was on the show in the early ’80s,” reports the soap newcomer. “He played Hutch, the hit man that was after Luke and Laura. And I have been around a number of the actors, personally and professionally. Genie Francis [Laura], her father was an actor and my mother was an actress and we both had the same agent.”
He added, “Years ago, when I was doing the PERRY MASON MYSTERIES, she came and did one [1993’s THE CASE OF THE KILLER KISS]. Another person with that agent was Eric Braeden [Victor, Y&R], who I knew as Hans [his birth name], because he used to come over to our house when I was a kid!” He even has a connection to Jeff’s original portrayer, Richard Dean Anderson, who was on GH from 1976-81. “In, I think, 1983, we did THE BATTLE OF THE NETWORK STARS together. So I knew Richard when I was in my early 20s. I think we won that year, actually, with the tug of war!”

Moses opened up about how he was approached to come on board with General Hospital. He recalled, “It felt like a full-circle event in my mind. I was actually away on vacation when they called and I said, ‘Okay, yeah, let’s do it!’ At this point in my career, I’m a working actor and where the work is, is where I go! It’s what I love to do, and to have the chance to work on a great part in a new medium created a wonderful professional challenge, in the best kind of way.”
