The day after Nyby graduated from Van Nuys High School in California in
1959, he drove to north central Idaho, following a friend to the
University of Idaho for college. He stayed at Idaho for two years as a
member of the swim team and the Tau Kappa Epsilon fraternity before
transferring to USC. In 1963, the Air Force sent Nyby to Vietnam as a
photographer. Four years later, he landed a job as an assistant
director; his first directing job was an episode of
Ironside (1967). In the
years since, he has directed television movies and episodes of many
television series, counting his
Hill Street Blues (1981) episodes as his
favorites.
