John Ingle (born May 7, 1928) is an American actor known for his role as scheming patriarch Edward Quartermaine on the ABC daytime drama, General Hospital.
A retired teacher, Ingle began mainstream acting in 1981 doing various guest appearances.
In 1993, he took over the role of Edward Quartermaine on General Hospital. In December 2003, Ingle was fired and Edward was to be killed off. Due to an outrage from fans, Ingle was rehired and put on recurring status. Without a contract to keep him at GH, Ingle was free to court other offers and accepted the contract role of Mickey Horton, as a recast for the retiring John Clarke, on the soap opera, Days of our Lives. Ingle left General Hospital in February 2004 and Edward was recast with Jed Allan. Once at Days, Ingle became part of a love triangle story involving Bonnie (Judi Evans Luciano) and Maggie (Suzanne Rogers), a far cry from the "old man" that some brass at GH reputed the character of Edward to be.
