ALL MY CHILDREN
All My Children (AMC) celebrated its 25th anniversary in January 1995.
Created by Agnes Nixon, who worked on Search for Tomorrow, Another World
and One Life to Live, the show revolves around the lives of the residents of
Pine Valley, a fictional town that closely resembles the Philadelphia Main Line. AMC
has received over thirty Emmy Awards and consistently distinguishes itself in the
field of daytime drama. Past story lines have included social issues such as AIDS,
abortion, teenage alcoholism, racial bias, acquaintance rape, battered wives and drug
abuse. AMC premiered as a half-hour show on ABC on January 5, 1970 and expanded to an
hour format on April 25, 1977. AMC was the first daytime serial to go on location,
taping storylines in St. Croix in 1978. AMC airs weekdays on ABC.
