A Calmar native is being profiled by the Quad Cities NPR radio station after earning his third Daytime Emmy Award

Calmar native Brian Hemesath, who has won a third Daytime Emmy Award for his costume design work on "Sesame Street," is being profiled by WVIK Radio in the Quad Cities.  Hemesath earned his bachelor's in theater and art in 1994 from St. Ambrose University.  He was among a team of 21 designers to tie for the Emmy.

The WVIK Radio article says Hemesath was a costume designer this summer for a TV pilot which was shot in Northeast Iowa.  Said the article, "Hemesath stayed with his parents in Decorah and did some virtual fittings beforehand, sent clothing to actors, and was here a month during shooting. Being back near where he grew up, on a dairy farm, was a meaningful homecoming."
