‘The Bear’ Star Liza Colón-Zayas on Getting to Be a First-Time Emmy Nominee Opposite Carol Burnett and Meryl Streep
In his Awards Circuit column, Michael Schneider talks to Liza Colón-Zayas on how it feels to be a first-time Emmy nominee alongside Carol Burnett.
Colón-Zayas began her career Off Broadway with the semi-autobiographical solo show “Sistah Supreme,” then added steady work in film and TV. She’s popped up in everything from “Sex and the City” to “Blue Bloods,” but it wasn’t until 2019 that she got her first regular role, on OWN’s “David Makes Man.” That led to a part on the 2021 revival of HBO’s “In Treatment.” But the real breakthrough came with FX’s “The Bear.” In Season 1, her character, Tina Marrero, is a sharp-tongued cook who’s suspicious of the changes that Carmy (Jeremy Allen White) is bringing to their greasy spoon, The Beef.
