Shriner joined the cast of As the World Turns as Julia Larrabee (Sarah Brown)'s brother Keith Morrissey from February 2005 to January 2006. His role drew favourable reviews although he was detested by most fans of the show as he broke up Holden (Jon Hensley) and Lily Snyder (Martha Byrne), a very popular couple.
