LITTLE RASCALS CELEBRITY JEWS NATE BLOOM Special to the Jewish News Emmy Watch The Emmys will be on Thursday, Sept. 15, and here are some of the more prominent Jewish nominees. We'll cover some more acting nomi- nees next week., In the best drama series category, there's pro- ducer-writers DAVID MILCH and J.J. ABRAMS. They created, respectively, Deadwood and Lost. While they don't write most scripts, they supervise every word that gets on the screen. Likewise, nominated in the best comedy series category are Jewish creators-writers-producers MAX MUTCHNICK and DAVID KOHAN (Will and Grace) and PHIL ROSENTHAL (Everybody Loves Raymond). JON STEWART and SASCHA BARON COHEN are nominated in several categories (including best "variety" series) for their respec- tive programs, The Daily Show and Da Ali G Show. Both produce, star in and help write their Nate Bloom is the California-based editor of wwwjewhoo.corn, 9/ 8 2005 38 comedic shows. A favorite of mine JILL CLAYBURGH is Emrny-nominated for best guest actress (drama series) (Nip/Tuck). MARTIN LANDAU ithout a Trace) and RED BUTTONS (ER.) vie against each other for the Emmy for best guest actor (drama series). Buttons and Landau both won Oscars for best supporting actor. In the best guest actor Buttons (comedy series) category, the Jewish nominees are JEFF GOLDBLUM and VICTOR GARBER, both of whom appeared on Will and Grace. Mazel Toy 3X Actress RENA SOFER, 38, and her husband, director SANFORD BOOKSTAVER, 32, had a baby girl on Aug. 5 and named her AVALON LEONE BOOKSTAVER. Sofer, whose father is an Orthodox rabbi, mar- ried Bookstaver in 2003 in a lovely Jewish wed- ding that made the pages of People and InStyle magazines. (Sofer has an 8-year-old daughter from a previous marriage). On Aug. 22, JERRY SEINFELD, 51, and his wife, JESSICA SKLAR SEINFELD, 34, had their third child, a son they named SHEPHERD KELLEN SEINFELD. The couple, who married in an elegant, but small Jewish wedding in 1999, have a 2- year-old son, JULIAN, and a 4-year-old daughter, SASCHA. On Aug. 24, former Funky Brewster star SOLEIL MOON FRYE, 29, gave birth to a baby girl. She and her husband, TV producer JASON GOLDBERG, 34, named their child POET ROSE SIENNA GOLDBERG. Frye, who's mother is Jewish, had a big Jewish wedding when she married Goldberg in 1998. I know your thinking: Avalon, Poet and Shepherd? Yeah, maybe the names are too pre- cious. However, when these kids get older, they could start a company called Avalon, Poet and Shepherd — what a perfect name for a romance book publisher or scented candle maker.
