[edit] Character History
Tracy Quartermaine was strapped for cash and had just ended a disastrous marriage to faux Lord Larry Ashton. Her father, Edward had cut her off, refusing to bankroll any more of her escapades until she found herself a husband. Tracy then pushed her fiancée, the corrupt, Assistant District Attorney who had ties to organized crime, Mitch Williams to marry her. Lured in by the Quartermaine endless fortune, Mitch married Tracy, but continued to see Susan Moore on the side. By now social climbing Williams, (who remained in the mob's pocket) was running for the State Senate. Tracy gleefully financed his campaign. With Tracy controlling the purse strings, Mitch had no choice but to give in to her demands to crack down on organized crime -- starting with the mob's rumored control of the Campus Disco ran by head mobster Frank Smith.
Smith who wasn't happy with Mitch's harassment arranged for his manager of the disco, Luke Spencer to carry out a hit on Mitch. In order to save his good friend, Roy DiLucca attempted to carry out the hit himself. The attempt failed and Roy was shot by Mitch's security detail. He was presumed dead but Roy really was sent to Pentonville federal prison.
Mitch was now running for governor of New York. Later, Edward Quartermaine agreed to give Tracy two million dollars, which could only be spent on Mitch's race for the governorship. Tracy tired of competing with Susan for Mitch's affections, used the money to lure the greedy Mitch away from her. Mitch chose money over love and he left Port Charles for Albany. Tracy knew she couldn't compete with Susan so, she left with her tail between her legs and joined Mitch in Albany.
Their marriage didn't last long. Mitch and Tracy quietly divorced and she returned to Port Charles searching for love yet again.
