Molly Fischer on the Emmy Award-winning actress, and how the comedian and writer, who got her start with the Girl Who’s Never Been on a Nice Date, created a network hit.
In the trailer, Brunson sat before a mirror in a loose navy sweater, a Dior-logo print scarf over her hair. Lisa Peña-Wong, a nail technician, was in the process of swapping out Brunson’s glittery awards manicure for a simpler look—something more befitting Janine Teagues, her character on “Abbott,” an eager-beaver second-grade teacher who’s still finding her personal and professional footing.
Brunson attended a formative elementary-school program focussed on Black history called Ahali, which was situated on the top floor of the building where her mother taught. She was an energetic child, so her mother signed her up for acrobatics and ballet classes. She liked both, but her early encounters with “Martin” and “In Living Color” had stuck. “Comedy—it’s wack to say, but it is kind of a religion,” Brunson, who left her parents’ faith at twenty-one, told me.
