Mayor's Office of Media and Entertainment Celebrates the 25 Wins at the 76th Emmy Awards for 'Made in NY' Productions


NEW YORK, NY - The Mayor's Office of Media and Entertainment (MOME) is proud to celebrate the 25 wins at the 76th Emmy Awards for 'Made in NY' productions, announced last night during the Primetime Emmy Awards and last week's Creative Arts Emmy Awards. This year's awards, up from 15 last year, were selected from a total of 121 nominations. A 'Made in NY' production is established when 75% or more of a show's filming takes place in NYC.

“We are so thrilled to celebrate the 25 Emmy Award wins received for 'Made in NY' productions, including six for the iconic Saturday Night Live, four for the beloved comedy Only Murders in the Building, and two each for The Daily Show and Last Week Tonight with John Oliver," said NYC Commissioner of the Mayor's Office of Media and Entertainment Pat Swinney Kaufman. “This level of recognition showcases our robust local talent pool, infrastructure and overall dedication to making NYC a City of Yes in terms of TV production."

Going To Mars: The Nikki Giovanni Project for Exceptional Merit in Documentary Filmmaking has become the first-ever Emmy winning project for a NYC Women's Fund Recipient. The NYC Women's Fund for Media, Music and Theatre is a signature initiative presented by MOME in partnership with New York Foundation for the Arts (NYFA) to address the underrepresentation of women in the entertainment industry.
