[ Stringfield's new Gig ]

August 97

Actress Sherry Stringfield was stunned by her recent Emmy nomination, she says. The popular star of "ER" shocked Hollywood last year when she decided to leave the hit show. Even though she appeared in just a few episodes this season, she received a best actress nod. "Oh man, I could not believe it," Stringfield, 30, told Variety. "On one hand, I was completely flattered, but on the other hand, I thought people have a good sense of humor." Stringfield says she'll probably attend the Emmys, but these days she's living on the East Coast, doing voice-overs, teaching acting and looking for roles in independent films.
