Who Is Cameron Webber's Father On General Hospital?

Zander Smith arrived on the "General Hospital" scene back in 2000 and was only around for a few brief years before meeting his tragic end. 

He was first introduced as a young man working for one of Port Charles' many mobsters, and Emily Quartermaine (Amber Tamblyn) immediately caught his eye. When they ended up on the run together, they even fell for each other, but she also still had feelings for Nikolas Cassadine (then played by Tyler Christopher). So things didn't work out between them.

When Carly Corinthos (then played by Tamara Braun) tried to seduce Zander to make Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) jealous, Jason Morgan, Carly's best friend and Sonny's right-hand man, beat him, and it was Elizabeth Webber who nursed him back to health. The pair began a romance, but Emily returned, and, when she decided to reunite with Nikolas again, Zander and Elizabeth shared one night together that resulted in a pregnancy (via Soaps In Depth). 

At the time, Elizabeth was married to Ric Lansing (Rick Hearst), a lawyer whom Zander signed his parental rights over to with the aim of keeping baby Cameron safe from his mob lifestyle (via Soaps In Depth).
