The Bold and the Beautiful five-time Emmy winner is also a rising TV director, an interior designer, and a mom. Oh, and she does hot yoga. Here’s how she finds the time
6:00 AM I set an alarm, but I’m usually already awake, thinking about the day and how I’m going to pry our son, Zach, out of bed. He’s a kindergartner but sleeps like a teenager, so I basically have to drop water on his head to get him up!
6:45 AM I’m not a breakfast person. I grab some coffee and go for a run before driving over to CBS Television City.
8:00 AM We rehearse scenes for an hour. If I’m directing, I can’t be in a scene. I’ve been doing daytime for almost 30 years, but it’s very different being behind the camera. I’ve directed more than 20 episodes of The Bold and the Beautiful, and you can’t believe the intensity. I dare anyone—even Steven Spielberg—to do what we do in a day: shooting 80 to 100 script pages in six hours! This year, I’m part of the CBS Directors Initiative training program, which gives newer directors the opportunity to shadow CBS shows throughout the year. So helpful!
9:00 AM If I’m acting, this is when I’m in hair and makeup. I’m lucky to have such a great crew. I’ve known many of these people since I was 15.
