This was Brunson\u2019s first Emmy win which made her only the second Black woman to receive the award in all of Emmy\u2019s history. \u201cAbbott Elementary\u201d is one of many shows that Brunson has starred in, including Issa Rae\u2019s \u201cA Black Lady Sketch Show\u201d and \u201cQuinta vs. Everything\u201d which aired on BuzzFeedVideo in 2017. A previous winner of the best Writing for a Comedy Series award is Lena Waithe, who won as a co-writer of \u201cMaster of None\u201d in 2017, and Larry Wilmore, whom Brunson cheerfully thanked in her acceptance speech. As Brunson expressed her gratitude for those who helped her before and throughout the production of her show, she said, \u201cI do want to thank Larry Wilmore for teaching me how to write television as well as he did.\u201d Wilmore accepted the award in 2002 as a writer for \u201cThe Bernie Mac Show\u201d and is also a three-time Emmy nominee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-expand=\"600\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;charset=utf-8,%3Csvg xmlns%3D'http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg' viewBox%3D'0 0 1 1'%2F%3E\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.blackfilm.com\/read\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/160490_R08_C89_r3-724x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"lazyload wp-image-162082\"\/><figcaption>ABBOTT ELEMENTARY &#8211; ABC&#8217;s &#8220;Abbott Elementary&#8221; stars Tyler James Williams as Gregory, Janelle James as Ava, Quinta Brunson as Janine, Sheryl Lee Ralph as Barbara, Chris Perfetti as Jacob, and Lisa Ann Walter as Melissa.
