Susan Lucci regroups after cancellation

LOS ANGELES, April 16 (UPI) -- Susan Lucci's daughter says the legendary soap star had no idea the venerable U.S. TV series "All My Children" was about to be canceled.

Liza Huber told TMZ.com Lucci found out about the cancellation Thursday when the producers made the official announcement to the entire cast and crew.

Huber said despite being out of a job, her 64-year-old mom has no plans to retire from acting and has already fielded offers for new television projects.

TMZ said it spoke to Lucci Monday about the rumblings of the cancellation and she said there was "no truth to that rumor."

Lucci spent 41 years on "All My Children" and is considered the doyenne of U.S. soap operas.
