Ami Brabson is the wife of the late actor Andre Braugher. Braugher recently died on December 11, 2023.

American actor Andre Braugher was best known for his roles in TV shows like "Brooklyn Nine-Nine" and "Homicide: Life on The Street." He made his breakthrough in the movie "Glory" in 1989, where he co-starred with Morgan Freeman and Denzel Washington.

Despite his success, Braugher faced challenges finding roles in Hollywood, where opportunities for African-American actors were scarce. However, he became well-known by playing Detective Frank Pembleton in the TV series “Homicide: Life on the Street” for seven seasons. In 1998, he earned his first Emmy Award for an outstanding performance in the series.

In 2006, he earned the second Emmy for the FX limited series called “Thief.” Altogether, he got 11 Emmy nominations. He took a new challenge in his career by moving into comedy as Capt. Ray Holt in “Brooklyn Nine-Nine,” a show that ran from 2013 to 2021. Despite his background in serious dramas, Braugher embraced the change, finding it an opportunity to explore a different side of his acting abilities. He expressed his appreciation for the chance to think differently and be more flexible as an actor. Throughout the show's run, he received four Emmy nominations.
