    LOS ANGELES: Barack Obama is halfway to an EGOT. The former US president won an Emmy Award on Saturday to go with his two Grammys.

    Obama won the best narrator Emmy for his work on the Netflix documentary series, “Our Great National Parks”.

    The five-part show, which features national parks from around the globe, is produced by Barack and Michelle Obama’s production company, “Higher Ground”.

    He was the biggest name in a category full of famous nominees for the award handed out at Saturday night’s Creative Arts Emmys, including Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, David Attenborough and Lupita Nyong’o.

    Barack Obama is the second president to have an Emmy. Dwight D Eisenhower was given a special Emmy Award in 1956.

    Barack Obama previously won Grammy Awards for his audiobook reading of two of his memoirs, “The Audacity of Hope” and “A Promised Land.”

    Michelle Obama won her own Grammy for reading her audiobook in 2020. EGOT refers to a special category of entertainers who have won an Emmy, a Grammy, an Oscar and a Tony. To date, 17 people have done it.
