In a first for daytime television, soap star Heather Tom will act in an upcoming episode of “The Bold and the Beautiful” that she also wrote and directed.

The episode is said to be timed to Women’s History Month, which celebrates the contributions of women to events in history and contemporary society and is set to air Thursday, March 27.

Joining the show’s cast in August 2007 as Katie Logan, after previously portraying the roles of Victoria Newman on “The Young and the Restless” and Kelly Cramer on “One Life to Live,” among other acting credits, Tom has been a director at “The Bold and the Beautiful” since November 2015, with her first episode airing January 5, 2016.

Since then, Tom has gone on to direct several dozen episodes of the soap opera, as well as such shows as “Good Trouble” and “Dynasty,” and even a 2019 episode of “The Young and the Restless,” among other projects she’s directed.

Last fall, it was announced that in addition to her acting and directing work at “The Bold and the Beautiful,” Tom had also joined the show’s writing team as a scriptwriter, with her first episode airing Wednesday, November 6, 2024.

“Heather will be equally wonderful at writing as she is at acting, and as director, her creative mojo is just off the chart,” said Tom’s co-star Don Diamont (Bill Spencer) during an October 2, 2024 joint interview with Tom on the Michael Fairman Channel. “She is just so gifted and so committed, and it all matters to her.  I just cannot say enough. It is the best thing of my career to work with this wonderfully talented woman, and just wonderful person.”

Along with co-star Lawrence Saint-Victor (Carter Walton), who is also part of the show’s writing team in addition to appearing on screen, the daytime soap opera continues to highlight the multiple talents of its cast beyond portraying their fan favorite characters.

I'm happy that Heather Tom had this opportunity, but this soap is not the one I'd rely on for an episode to be timed with Women's History Month.

I'm so glad Heather gets to exercise all her creative pursuits. I just wish it was with a character I gave a damn about and on a show I wanted to watch.

Bradley Bell's The Bold And The Beautiful... and Women's History Month - what an unintentional oxymoron.

I think this is so freaking cool. I don't even care that it's on B&B under today's pretty awful Bradley tenure. It's still a very cool thing!!!

I think Brad Bell is starting a succession plan for Bold and Heather Tom and Lawrence St Victor are apart of it.

Congrats to HT for making history
