Timeline
William Fredrick Geddie (July 17, 1955 – July 20, 2023) was an American television producer.
He was the co-creator (with Barbara Walters) of ABC Daytime's The View, on the ABC television network, and was also the show's executive producer for its first 16 seasons.

William Frederick Geddie was born in San Antonio, Texas on July 17, 1955.
He graduated from the University of Texas at Austin in 1977, majoring in communications/film.
He had a job buffing the floors at KOCO-TV, in Oklahoma City and he said, "When you buffed the floors—this is how informal television was back then—they let you run camera for the local news. What got me off the floor was that I went to the news director and said I had shot film before, so he gave me a job shooting film."
Geddie was the co-creator and the original executive producer for The View; it debuted in August 1997 and he stayed with the show until 2014.
He was frequently featured on the show; he acknowledged, "If I can be the brunt of a joke, if I can do to get a laugh, or if I can help in any way that's what I'll do. Otherwise, that is it. I stay out of the way... if you watch the show, you see that generally speaking I'm a side player and I'm basically there to get a laugh."
Geddie had well documented disagreements, in particular with former hosts Star Jones, Rosie O'Donnell, and guest host Kathy Griffin.
In 2003, he won a Daytime Emmy Award in the Outstanding Talk Show category for his work as executive producer of The View.
He was presented with the Lifetime Achievement Award at the 39th Daytime Emmy Awards on June 23, 2012, for his contributions as writer, producer, and director in his more than 30-year television career.
