Shelly Altman Named CoHead Writer To GH

She's been on OLTL and a breakdown writer on GH since this summer. SOD reports she's moving into "coheadwriter position" now.  I'm  not enthused. Color me cynical, but they are going to need something way bigger than this to fix the show.

Digest has learned that Shelly Altman has been named co-Head Writer of GENERAL HOSPITAL, effective immediately. She will work alongside current Head Writer Garin Wolf. An Emmy winner herself, Altman has worked on ONE LIFE TO LIVE and ANOTHER WORLD, among other television projects. She's also been nominated for Best Writing by the Writer's Guild of America. Welcome aboard!
