The Edge of Night
Capshaw moved to New York City to pursue her dream of acting, landing her first role on the soap opera "The Edge of Night". After auditioning for a small role in "A Little Sex", she was offered the role of the leading lady, which is when she asked for a dismissal from "The Edge of Night". She starred in "Dreamscape" in 1984, and afterwards was directed by her then-boyfriend Armyan Bernstein in "Windy City".
