Jennifer Pace Phillips was a fictional character on the now-cancelled American soap opera Search for Tomorrow. She was played by actress Morgan Fairchild from 1973 to 1977, the first in a long line of similar roles for Fairchild.

[edit] History

Jennifer was the beautiful but extremely neurotic daughter of businessman Walter Pace (Tom Klunis) who was eventually married to Stephanie Wilkins. Because both Jennifer and Stephanie were vampy and extremely ne'er-do-well, they got along wonderfully. Her first husband was Scott Phillips (Peter Simon) who had been separated from his first wife, Kathy Parker Phillips (Courtney Sherman).

After driving him to drink, (which wasn't hard, since he was an alcoholic) she had been injured when she tried to go through a mirror, which really left her unhinged. Before marrying Scott, she had been involved with Bruce Carson (Joel Higgins), the ward of Joanne Gardner. At one point in time, Jennifer and a friend of her's Hal Conrad, had a hand in the death of Doug Martin, who had been discovered to be her former father in-law. (Doug Martin was also Scott Phillips' father)

Her most despicable act was the murder of Doug's ex-wife, Eunice Gardner Wyatt (Ann Williams), Jo's sister, because she (Jennifer) was trying to steal her husband, John Wyatt (Val Dufour). Jennifer felt that she had heard John's voice saying that she had to kill Eunice.

This act finally forced Walter to place his mentally unstable daughter into a sanitarium. Presumably, she is still there, knowing that she can't deal with the harshness of reality.
