When B&B celebrated its 30th anniversary on March 23, Director Michael Stich marked his third decade with the CBS sudser. “It’s surreal,” says the three-time Emmy winner. “What’s so great about daytime is that the shows themselves totally change over time. Certain characters will have a period of time on the show and then leave and totally new scenarios begin, new families come in, so even though you’re going to the same studio every day, the show is constantly evolving. It almost feels like a new show with the same title.”

Daytime has been in Stich’s blood since the beginning of his career. “I got into television very early,” he states. “I started as a camera operator when I was 17 years old, working on SESAME STREET in New York. I always had the passion to tell stories. I still think it’s magical. I did camera work for nearly 20 years. I worked on other daytime shows in New York, like ALL MY CHILDREN and ONE LIFE TO LIVE, so I always liked the genre. I was making short films on the side and a director who’d done a lot of daytime, Bill Glenn, pushed me in that direction. He encouraged me to take lessons and study how to talk to actors. He really prepared me for this, so I was very lucky.”
