Over its seven-season run and 122 episodes, the show won four Emmy Awards.
Simon authored the book titled “The Corner: A Year in the Life of an Urban Community,” which later became the HBO television series “The Corner.” This TV show earned three Emmy Awards, among them being the categories of exceptional miniseries and excellent writing for a miniseries.
