The "Interview” award went to filmmakers Robert Epstein and Richard Schmiechen rather than the other nominee — “Nightline” anchorman Ted Koppel. In their acceptance speech for the “Out standing Program/Achievement” Award, Epstein and Schmiechen told the audience: “When we got the air date from PBS — the good news was that it was national prime time; the bad news was that it was opposite a two hour ‘special’ of ‘Dynasty.’ But we knew Harvey would love the opportunity to give Alexis a run for her money and, apparently, he did.” In receiving the "Interview” Em m y Award, the filmmakers acknowledged the film ’s in terviewees and particularly Bill Kraus, an The National Association of Television Arts and Sciences (NATAS) News/Docu- mentary Em m y Awards announced three Emmys for The Tim es o f H arvey Milk for “Outstanding Program/Achievement,” "Out standing Interview/lnterviewer" and “Out standing Film Editors” (Deborah Hoffman & Robert Epstein), August 27,1986 in New York.
