Anthony Bourdain Won A Posthumous Emmy For Parts Unknown This Weekend

From Delish

Anthony Bourdain has won his second posthumous Emmy. The late chef and host was awarded the Outstanding Writing for a Nonfiction Program Emmy for the "Kenya" episode of Parts Unknown, per The Hollywood Reporter.

At this weekend's Creative Arts Emmys, the Parts Unknown team also took home a second award for Outstanding Informational Series or Special. They were nominated for Outstanding Sound Mixing for a Nonfiction Program (Single or Multi-Camera), again for the episode titled "Kenya," which was the only episode from the final season to feature Tony's narration.

Tony's former assistant, Laurie Woolever, posted a message about the win to Twitter, saying, "One of a million things I wish he were here for."

Fellow chef José Andrés also tweeted a message of support to friends Eric Ripert and Matt Goulding: "Our friend keeps delivering the goods....I know you are celebrating somewhere....congratulations Dear Friend....."

Zero Point Zero Productions, which produced Tony's show, shared a message to Instagram thanking all the crew members who've worked on the chef's projects over the last two decades.

Parts Unknown is nominated for three more Emmy Awards, which will be announced at the Primetime Emmy Awards ceremony Sunday, September 22. Nominations include Outstanding Cinematography for a Nonfiction Program, Outstanding Picture Editing for a Nonfiction Program, and Outstanding Sound Editing for a Nonfiction Program.

Last year, shortly after Tony's death, the CNN show was nominated for six Emmy awards and went on to win all six.
