Potter for the People - From the Muggles

Maggie Smith--the actress who portrays Minerva McGonagall in the Potter films--has been nominated in the category of Outstanding Supporting Actress at the Emmy Awards for her role in "Downtown Abbey"! "Downtown Abbey" itself received multiple nominations, and we wish Maggie Smith and the cast the best of luck.

Last year, Maggie Smith was nominated for and won Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Miniseries or Movie at the Emmys. We hope she goes home from this year's awards ceremony with just as much recognition!
