Hunter Ingram Carrie Coon had a house full of family the morning she learned she was nominated for an Emmy for her work on HBO’s “The Gilded Age.” After a 16-hour day on the set of the period drama’s third season, Coon’s mother, father, brother, sister-in-law and a few kids arrived overnight from Ohio for a visit.
Including her own children, the only family member not home on Emmy nominations morning was her husband, fellow actor Tracy Letts, who received his surprise first nomination for guest starring on HBO’s “Winning Time: The Rise of the Lakers Dynasty.” On that rather crowded morning, it was her agent Jacob Fenton who called to congratulate Coon on her nod for her role as Bertha Russell, the ambitious social climber and railroad baron’s wife, who is taking 1880s New York City by storm.
Then a flurry of texts came flying in about Letts, which is when she realized double congratulations were in order. Letts, meanwhile, had gone into the city for an early photoshoot and watched in the makeup trailer as his wife’s nomination was announced, before putting his phone away.
