Deborah Morgan (born September 20, 1956 in Dunn, North Carolina) is an American television actress, most known for her role as Angie Baxter Hubbard on All My Children.
Morgan first became known in a recurring role as Diane Harris on What's Happening!! from 1976 to 1977. Her most famous role was on the soap All My Children, a role she originally played from 1982 to 1990. Her portrayal of Angie struck a chord with many black viewers across America; she and her love interest, Jesse Hubbard (Darnell Williams), became the first black "supercouple" on the daytime serials.
She then reprised her role as Angie on Loving and The City. From 1997 to 1998, she played Dr. Ellen Burgess on Port Charles. In the early 2000s, she played lead character Lora, opposite Lea Thompson, on the Lifetime series For the People.
In the 1980s and 1990s, Morgan became a de facto symbol for the possibilities for black women as all of her soap opera roles involved her playing a successful doctor.
