It was super nice of Jess to give the Television Academy my info which resulted in this official certificate of recognition of my work on Emmy Award ;) winning Russian Doll!

Part of why I think it was so exciting for all of us involved that Russian Doll won the Production Design Emmy is we were such a small team in the Art Department and Set Decorating Department. I’ve regularly worked in Set Decorating Teams that are at least 4 assistant decorators and shoppers, a PA (or two), and our own coordinator supporting the key head Set Decorator and a huge Art Department (like 20+ people) infrastructure to prop the work up.

On Russian Doll the Set Decorating Department was just Jess and me. We didn’t even have our own PA! The entire Art Department, including us, was just 7 of us (at our biggest 9) crammed into one room on the 4th floor of an old 19th century tenement building in Soho above a Chipotle and FedEx store. True glamour.
