[edit] Character History
Dan Rooney came to Port Charles with financier Lamont Corbin. Lamont left, but Dan took on the job of hospital administrator.
At the hospital, Nurse Jessie Brewer found her workday routine interrupted by increasingly regular visits from Dan Rooney, the new hospital administrator. Dan and Jessie devised an innovative "trial marriage" to see if they were indeed compatible. To the amused glances of their colleagues, he would spend his days with Jessie in her apartment and at the hospital -- but would sleep at home!
This "marriage" ended quickly and quietly as Dan then began dating Ruby Anderson.
