GH Spoilers: Anne Schoettle Is No Stranger To The Land Of Daytime Drama
GH spoilers remind fans that Chris Van Etten and Elizabeth Korte are currently the soap’s co-head writers with Cathy LePard the associate head writer.
The daytime drama has undergone significant writing team changes since the onset of 2024, so it’s important to try to keep things straight!
If Anne’s name looks familiar, it’s because she’s made some pretty big contributions to other soaps over the years. From January 1990 to June 1991, she was the head writer for Days of Our Lives (DOOL).
She also had writing roles on other shows like Sunset Beach, The Young and the Restless (Y&R), The Bold and the Beautiful (B&B), as well as Port Charles and Guiding Light.

Interestingly enough, Anne is married to David Shaughnessy, who has links to the soap world, as well.
He directed episodes of DOOL, Y&R, and B&B, and he happens to be the brother of legendary soap actor and former GH (and Days) alum, Charles Shaughnessy (GH’s ex-Victor Cassadine, DOOL’s ex-Shane Donovan).
Anne and David share three daughters, Amy, Josie, and Kate, and it was Amy who gave her mom some props on X (formerly known as Twitter) recently with the following tweet, “Look out #SoapTwitter, Anne Schoettle is BACK! #GeneralHospital #ScriptEditor”.
Here’s wishing Anne continued writing success in soap operas as she enters this new GH writer’s role.
