Emmy Nominees for Multiple Series: Drama Actress [PHOTOS]

In 2023, Keri Russell earned her fourth Best Drama Actress Emmy nomination for her work on the first season of “The Diplomat.” Having previously picked up a trio of bids for “The Americans,” she became the 12th woman ever recognized in said category for multiple series. Take a look through our photo gallery to find out who else belongs to this exclusive club.

Of the dozen entrants on this list, only two – Russell and Connie Britton (“Friday Night Lights”; “Nashville”) – did not win for at least one of their nominated roles. Those who charmed enough voters as stars of two series each are Barbara Stanwyck (“The Barbara Stanwyck Show”; “The Big Valley”), Susan Hampshire (“The Forsyte Saga”; “The First Churchills”), Michael Learned (“The Waltons”; “Nurse”), and Sela Ward (“Sisters”; “Once and Again”).

Although female drama series stars were not permanently afforded their own exclusive category until 1966, those (like Stanwyck) who contended for earlier generic honors such as “Best Female Star of a Regular Series” are factored in here.
