You're such a regular awards season player, and I think it'd be great if Rhea Seehorn joined you on a lot of these nomination lists. Do you sort of have a plea or an argument on her behalf?
Yeah! (addresses a hypothetical awards voter) You should give Rhea an Emmy right now and a Golden Globe as well and a SAG for sure. Sometimes it's hard for people to receive award nominations when their character is a tight-knit character. I always felt like it took a long time for Jon Hamm to win an Emmy because his character was actually emotionally dead. So like, he's not a character that's gonna cry. Well, you know, Kim is an incredibly tightly wound character.....
about David Tennant
KONNER: The answer is BROADCHURCH [an English crime drama that starred the Scottish Tennant]. I am just obsessed with BROADCHURCH, and so he was on our casting list, and I wanted to die of joy. I was like, “Can he do it? Would he really do it? Would he really do it?” I have another friend who had just worked with him. I think Jon Hamm said, “Oh, my God, this guy is so funny, it’s unreal.” And it’s true.
Stars Join 15th Annual St. Jude Thanks and Giving Campaign
“I’m honored to be involved in the St. Jude Thanks and Giving campaign this year and to be part of the team that is helping to save the lives of children in communities across America and around the world,” said Jon Hamm. “It is a great privilege to lend my voice to motivate people to support the lifesaving work of St. Jude. Please join me and help the children of St. Jude who are in the biggest fight of their lives.”

Things Jon Hamm Can't Live Without
Many might say a dinner date with Jon Hamm is something they can’t live without. We’ve seen it happen a few times this year where his name gets put up on an auction board for a local charity and sure enough, dinner is served with the movie and TV star. Most recently, an evening with Hamm went for $80,000 at the Dine and Draft event for Care to Learn, an organization that provides basic human needs and essentials to students struggling to overcome poverty. Co-founder Donn Sorenson says, “One in five kids is at poverty level and the only way out is education and if you can’t have an education because of poverty it’s just horrible.”
Hamm was a student at John Burroughs School when he was growing up in St. Louis. He says, “We were very lucky at Burroughs because none of those things were a problem. We had all of those things in spades.” But what many might not have realized was it was because of others that Hamm had that experience. “I was a scholarship kid and I got to try all kinds of things… you don’t get there by yourself. It takes concerned and caring individuals.”

Community. “It’s nice when a community can come together and help. Nobody does any of this stuff by themselves. I was a perfect example of that at Burroughs.”
Hamm adds, “I went back recently to Burroughs. It’s funny you think when you’re a senior you think you run the world. And to go back now at 47 and look at the guys 30 years younger than me and I think gosh these are just kids.” Perhaps it’s that realization that brings Hamm back to St. Louis ever so often not just to see family and friends and of course the St. Louis Blues, but also to lend a hand for a great cause that is paving a future for the next generation to come.
