Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted August 12, 2007 Members Share Posted August 12, 2007 I believe Nancy Curlee had the most authority in that head writing team, since she was there the longest and previously served as Pamela Long's co-head writer. Though, I get what you're saying, I still don't know how 4 very different head writers got the job done together. Nancy Curlee left soap writing after her GL stint and to this day, many soaps have been trying to land her. Guza and Pratt have a long history of working together. They have written for Santa Barbara and on a few of Aaron Spellings trashy primetime soaps. What's funny about Curlee/Demorest/Rely/Broderick and Pratt and Guza was that fact JFP was the EP overseeing both teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Dr. Jay S.W. Posted August 12, 2007 Members Share Posted August 12, 2007 Wasnt Wendy Riche EP first? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted August 12, 2007 Members Share Posted August 12, 2007 I was talking about Guza and Pratt's head writng stint on SB, when JFP was the EP of that show. When Guza made his way to GH, during Wendy Riche's reign, he never worked with Pratt. He first worked with the UNDERRATED and TALENTED Karen Harris as his co-head writer. It wasn't until 2003, when McTavish was fired, did Pratt and Guza work toegther as head writers on GH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted August 12, 2007 Members Share Posted August 12, 2007 This is GH's Emmy winning team, headed by Guza, during the Wendy Riche era. I should also note, Claire Labine's writing team also won the writing Emmy in 96, during Riche's era. 1999 Emmy win for Outstanding Drama Series Writing Team: Robert Guza Jr. (head writer) Michele Val Jean (associate head writer) Patrick Mulcahey (associate head writer) Elizabeth Korte (associate head writer) Mary Ryan (associate head writer) Stephen Demorest (breakdown writer) Garin Wolf (breakdown writer) Craig Heller (script writer) Bill Levinson (script writer) Michael Quinn (script writer) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Dr. Jay S.W. Posted August 12, 2007 Members Share Posted August 12, 2007 oh, ok. I found the video I was talking about inside the Writers room, which coincides with Pratt and Guza's win. http://youtube.com/watch?v=lGkxQE_gWhA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted August 12, 2007 Author Administrator Share Posted August 12, 2007 When Leah Laiman came back to ATWT in 2005, did she come back as an Associate Head Writer and then promoted to Co-Head Writer? Or did she come right in as a Co-HW? For some reason, I didn't document Leah and Chris Whitesell being promoted to Co-HWs in 2005. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted August 12, 2007 Members Share Posted August 12, 2007 Laiman was rehired as an Associate Head Writer, but not too long after, she was Jean's co-head writer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Dr. Jay S.W. Posted August 12, 2007 Members Share Posted August 12, 2007 I'm pretty sure she was Associate Head Writer. I checked Wikipedia, if thats any comfort, and it says Associate Head also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
