Talk:William M. Hoffman

removed emmy nomination language
article had paragraph -

"In 1991, Hoffman was commissioned to write the libretto for the Metropolitan Opera's The Ghosts of Versailles in celebration of the company's centennial. A 1993 televised production starred Teresa Stratas, Renée Fleming, and Graham Clark, whose performance earned him an Emmy Award nomination for Outstanding Individual Achievement in Classical Music/Dance Programming."

i removed last sentence of quoted paragraph because a a search at http://cdn.emmys.tv/awards/awardsearch.php (a database run by the emmy organization) it would appear that the nomination was


 * "OUTSTANDING INDIVIDUAL ACHIEVEMENT - CLASSICAL MUSIC/dance programming - 1993 - THE GHOSTS OF VERSAILLES - PBS - GRAHAM CLARK as Begearss".

suspect award - Writers Guild of America Award (Best Writing, One Life to Live (1996)
unable to locate entry for this show ever winning this award at http://www.wga.org/awards/awardssub.aspx?id=1517. perhaps i hit the wrong database (or section thereof). i've been editing for some hours and could just be getting goofy. i didn't remove entry from article yet.--71.183.238.134 (talk) 09:52, 13 April 2009 (UTC)

Pulitzer nomination?

 * His bio at the CUNY-TV website mentions a Pulitzer nomination too, but looking at the Wikipedia page for Pulitzer Prize for Drama, that did not show up, so I left it out. The Pulitzer organization website lists the winner and the "finalist", but not the other nominees.  Maybe someone can find a source for confirmation and thus add it.  --Mdukas (talk) 06:18, 22 February 2010 (UTC)
