Oct. 16, 2024: In January of this year Bronxville graduate ('07) Miloš Balać of Bronxville won a 2023 Primetime Emmy award for "Outstanding Unstructured Reality Program" for his work on FX/Hulu's documentary series Welcome to Wrexham.
The series follows actors Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney as they take over Welsh soccer team Wrexham A.F.C., the third oldest soccer club in the world, and try to restore it to its former glory.
Miloš has now been recognized again! He just won the 2024 Primetime Emmy Award for his work as Co-Executive Producer on season two of FX/Hulu's documentary series Welcome to Wrexham. He spent three years working on Welcome to Wrexham and says that being recognized by his peers is an incredible feeling.
Accompanying Miloš at the awards ceremony was his mother, Bronxville resident Mirjana Balać.
“I brought my mom as my +1 not only because she is my biggest fan but also because she is truly the best party partner. It’s thanks to her inspiration and support that I got into this line of work in the first place, so to be able to celebrate with her was super special. Plus, I knew that together we would have so much fun on the after party dance floor, win or not.”
