Facts
Daytime Emmys are presented by the National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences (NATAS).
Emmy Awards are named after “Immy,” an abbreviation for the image orthicon camera. It was later changed to “Emmy,” which seemed more feminine.
The first Daytime Emmy Awards ceremony was held in 1974. Prior to this, a small number of daytime awards were presented along with the Primetime Emmy Awards.
In 2021, NATAS and the Television Academy announce a realignment of the Daytime and Primetime Emmy Awards, organizing the competitions by content genre rather than airtime.
