LOS ANGELES (December 16, 2023) – The National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences (NATAS) today announced the winners of the 50th Annual Daytime Emmy® Creative Arts & Lifestyle categories. The ceremony was presented live this afternoon at the historic Westin Bonaventure Hotel in downtown Los Angeles. The show aired live and is available to watch on theemmys.tv.  

Award-winning journalist Connie Chung bestowed the Lifetime Achievement Honor to her husband, legendary television talk show host Maury Povich, and other presenters included Judge Michael Correiro (Hot Bench), Delon de Metz (The Bold and the Beautiful), Gottmik (Book of Queer), Mark Grossman (The Young and the Restless), Abigail Klein (Days of Our Lives), Dominique Jackson (Book of Queer), Judge Rachel Juarez (Hot Bench), Benji Madden, Joel Madden, Eden McCoy (winner Outstanding Younger Performer Daytime Emmy at last night’s at the 50th Annual Daytime Emmys, General Hospital;), George Oliphant (George to the Rescue), and Judge Yodit Tewalde (Hot Bench).

“With all of the challenges and delays that came with 2023, it was the work of all the creative individuals and teams who bring their meticulous skills to Daytime programming that finally brought us together for this celebration. The work and quality endures,” said Brent Stanton, Head of Daytime Emmys Administration.


The Daytime Emmy Awards have recognized outstanding achievement in television programming and crafts since 1974, honoring work in a variety of categories, including daytime dramas, talk shows, instructional programming, hosting, and legal/courtroom programs. In 2021, the National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences (NATAS) and the Television Academy jointly announced plans to realign the Daytime and Primetime Emmy Awards to be organized by content genre, as opposed to program airtime. In addition, in recognition of the marked increase in content and entries for children’s programming, last year was the first annual Children’s & Family Emmy Awards, with relevant categories separating from the Daytime Emmys into their own competition and ceremony

All awards are judged by a pool of more than 1,000 peer professionals from across the television industry, whose confidential ballots were then tabulated by the independent accounting firm of Lutz & Carr, LLP.
