Meet Alrinthea Carter. Born right here in Charleston, she’s a comedian, Clemson University grad… and now, an Emmy nominee. Alrinthea joined the writing team for HBO’s “A Black Lady Sketch Show” in June 2021 and she’s already up for an Emmy.

We’ll be rooting for her on Sun., Sept. 12 when we catch the Emmy Awards Show on NBC.
