Heather Hill, a six-time Emmy Award-winning director celebrated for her extensive work on “The Young and the Restless,” passed away on October 10 in Las Vegas at the age of 85.

Hill was a trailblazer for women in the world of daytime television, starting her career in her beloved New York City after finishing her education at Rye Country Day School. She initially took on the role of production assistant for the CBS soap opera “Love of Life,” which aired for 29 seasons from the 1950s through the 1980s.

While in New York, Hill advanced from assistant director to director, working on various daytime dramas such as “Love Is a Many Splendored Thing,” “Search for Tomorrow,” and “As the World Turns.”

In 1985, she made the move to Los Angeles and became a contract director for the CBS soap opera “The Young and the Restless.”

For 15 years, Hill was integral to the show, directing a multitude of episodes. Between 1988 and 2000, she garnered 13 nominations for Daytime Emmy Awards in the outstanding drama series directing team category for her contributions to “The Young and the Restless.” 

Throughout her illustrious career, she claimed the Emmy award six times, sharing her first triumph with fellow team members Rudy Vejar, Frank Pacelli, Randy Robbins, and Betty Rothenberg.

Her remarkable directing repertoire also included work on “General Hospital” and the popular drama series “Baywatch.” She also earned a supervising producer credit for her involvement with the daytime soap “The Caitlins” during the 1980s.

Heather Hill is survived by her husband Randy; sons Tim and Chris; daughter-in-law Debbie Deuble Hill, alongside her grandchildren Violet, Quinn, and Carter.
