Adam Chandler is a fictional character from the soap opera All My Children, played by David Canary from 1983 to present. Adam is one of the richest men in the community of Pine Valley, Pennsylvania. He can be considered one of the most devious individuals on the show. His business dealings can and have gotten him into a lot of trouble. However, he has a close relationship with his family. He is especially close to his identical twin brother, Stuart; however, Stuart's tendency to act the part of Adam's conscience can be wearing. Adam is perhaps one of Pine Valley's most frequently married characters, as shown below. He resides at Chandler Mansion (300 River Road) and since September 21, 2005, has been married to Krystal Carey. He has had a long-standing feud with Palmer Cortlandt; although that front has somewhat quieted down, since Palmer isn't seen very often. Adam has also paid schemer Ava Benton to break up his daughter, Colby Chandler and Sean Montgomery's romance, and after Colby found out about her father paying Ava, she moved out of his house. On August 9, 2007, he posed as Stuart and held Krystal's baby daughter, Jenny Carey, for the first time. Information Occupation Latest heir to the Chandler fortune. ...
