Naren Shanker may not have won for Outstanding Writing in a Drama Series, but his work has been recognized with a host of prior nominations including Emmys, Edgar, and WGA. He won a Writers Guild of Canada award in 2000 for his writing on The Outer Limits.
Khandi Alexander was nominated for Image awards in 1998, 2001, 2002, 2005, 2006, and 2007. She won in 2005 for her work on CSI:Miami. This year she lost to <font color=yellow>Chandra Wilson</font> of Grey’s Anatomy

He was given both the Best Debut Author award and the Best Book for Youth/Teens award for the work, which is a combination of a memoir and advice for young people making their way in the world.
