Spotlight: Peter Dinklage

At the 71st Primetime Emmy Awards last Sunday night, Peter Dinklage (who plays Tyrion Lannister in HBO's Game of Thrones) won an Emmy for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series. This was Dinklage's fourth win, setting an Emmys record for the most wins in that category. He was also nominated as the executive producer and star of My Dinner with Hervé, an HBO film nominated for the Outstanding Television Movie Emmy. Dinklage, who is four feet and four inches tall, was born with achondroplasia, a form of dwarfism that results in shorter limbs. His head and torso are of average size. Married with two children, Dinklage will be playing the main character in the off-Broadway musical Cyrano starting on October 11.

      JP, I think I've seen Peter Dinklage only in the movie "Elf," but from what I read about him, he's a talented actor.
