Again, Christopher has been chosen to serve as one of the

the Daytime Emmys for many years now," Christopher says, "and it
is always an honor to be chosen to judge them every year. When
you realize that the Academy trusts your opinion on such important categories,
it is very flattering and it's always great to see the reactions
of the winners every year when they hear their name called. They've put
in a lot of hard work to get to that point and they deserve that recognition." The categories that Christopher is judging this year cannot be disclosed until
after the awards are presented, however he has been one of the judges for the categories of

Emmy Trivia:
The name "Emmy" is a feminization of “Immy”, a term
commonly used for the early image orthicon camera tube. The statue was designed
by Louis McManus, an engineer at Culver City's Cascade Pictures. He used his
wife, Dorothy, as his model. McManus's design was the last of 48 entries in an
Emmy design competition. His prize was a plaque of appreciation, not an Emmy.
