William Stanford Davis shares the story of the moment he told his wife that he had been selected for the cast of Abbott Elementary “I came home, and when I finally told her, we both started screaming. My dog was screaming. I was trying to hold back the tears, she was trying to hold back the tears. We thought the neighbors were gonna call the police because we were making so much noise. But, it was just a moment that we both couldn't believe because we'd both been hustling — not struggling, I wouldn't say struggling, you know — and I had a lot of jobs. I said this too: if Abbott hadn't come along, I had a good run. I worked on some decent shows, and I felt like, okay, all you ever wanted to be was a working actor. And this was way beyond anything that I could dream about.”
