Cassandra Foster is a fictional character on the ABC and The Online Network soap opera All My Children. On February 25, 2013, model Sal Stowers was cast as Cassandra on the Prospect Park's continuation of All My Children. The character originated in March 1997 as an infant on the now-defunct series The City, in its final days before cancellation. In 2008, Yaya DaCosta began portraying the character as a teenager from April 25, 2008 to August 25, 2008. DaCosta had placed runner-up in the third cycle of America's Next Top Model, while Stowers had won the competition in the ninth cycle of the show. Stowers made her debut on April 30, 2013.

Cassandra Foster is the adopted daughter of Jacob Foster (Darnell Williams) and Angela Hubbard (Debbi Morgan), and the adopted half-sister of Frankie Hubbard (Cornelius Smith Jr.). Abandoned by as an infant in 1997, Cassandra is discovered by Angie in a garbage dumpster in the SoHo district of New York City. Angie is still experiencing the loss of her foster daughter Kayla, who has been adopted by another couple. Angie falls in love with Cassandra almost immediately, and she and her then-husband Jacob adopt her.

Following her parents' divorce, Cassandra (Yaya DaCosta) decides to spend time with her father in Paris. In 2008, Cassandra (now age 18) returns to the United States and travels to Pine Valley, Pennsylvania to meet her mother's first husband Jesse Hubbard (Darnell Williams), who was erroneously believed to have died years before Cassandra's birth. In a strange coincidence, Jesse looks almost exactly like Jacob.
