Timeline

1918

Edward J. Yates (September 16, 1918 – June 2, 2006) was an American television director who was the director of the ABC television program American Bandstand from 1952 until 1969.

1936

Yates became a still photographer after graduating from high school in 1936.

After serving in World War II, he became employed by Philadelphia's WFIL-TV as a boom microphone operator.

1950

He was later promoted to cameraman (important as most programming was done live and local during the early years of television) and earned a bachelor's degree in communications in 1950 from the University of Pennsylvania.

1952

In October 1952, Yates volunteered to direct Bandstand, a new concept featuring local teens dancing to the latest hits patterned after the "950 Club" on WPEN-AM.

1956

The show debuted with Bob Horn as host and took off after Dick Clark, already a radio veteran at age 26, took over in 1956.

1957

It was broadcast live in its early years, even after it became part of the ABC network's weekday afternoon lineup in 1957 as American Bandstand.

Yates pulled records, directed the cameras, queued the commercials and communicated with Clark via a private line telephone located on his podium.

1964

In 1964, Clark moved the show to Los Angeles, taking Yates with him.

1969

Yates retired from American Bandstand in 1969, and moved his family to the Philadelphia suburb of West Chester.

2006

Yates died in 2006 at a nursing home, where he had been living for the last two months of his life.
