Jonathan Jackson nabbed his third Daytime Emmy for Outstanding Younger Actor. He recently left the show to pursue other projects. "It was very exciting," Jonathan enthused of his win. "It's a nice way to wrap up at GH. I was happy with the storyline they gave me, and very proud of the work. So, it's fun."
Was he surprised to hear his name again? "I don't know if I was surprised," he replied. "I was trying not to count on it but I wanted to be prepared if it happened. I tried not to forget anybody. I always end forgetting somebody and I feel so bad."
Since he already has two of these statues, where with this one go? "I guess in the middle of the other two just above the fireplace." Taken fromcbs.com

Jonathan said he chose those shows because they provided him a chance to work with a wide variety of other actors.
