Our week of interviews with 2018 Emmy nominees continues. Alec Baldwin is nominated for an Emmy for playing the president on ‘SNL.’ In 2017, he told Terry Gross that his impression is “kind of the Macy’s Day Parade [version] of Trump.” Brian Tyree Henry is nominated for an Emmy for his role as Alfred, aka the rapper “Paper Boi,” on the FX series ‘Atlanta.’
Also, we remember choreographer Paul Taylor, who died this week. He spoke with ‘Fresh Air’ in 1987.
