Who is Emmy winner Quinta Brunson ... besides the woman who had to step over Kimmel?
Brunson had already made history when she was nominated for three Emmys for Abbott Elementary
Even before she stepped over the prone body of presenter Jimmy Kimmel to accept an Emmy award, Quinta Brunson had made history.
That's because as creator and star of ABC's hit comedy Abbott Elementary, her three Emmy nominations already made her the first Black woman nominated in three comedy categories in the same year, and the youngest Black woman ever nominated as an actress in comedy.
So when she walked to the Emmy stage to accept the win for best writing in a comedy, making history again as only the second Black for stealing attention from her moment.)
