Golden State Warriors coach Steve Kerr was part of an Academy Award win Sunday night, serving as an executive producer on the documentary short “All the Empty Rooms.”
The film, which centers on the families of children killed in mass shootings, won the Oscar in its category at the ceremony.
Kerr’s role beyond the bench
While Kerr is best known for his work leading the Warriors, his executive producer credit on “All the Empty Rooms” placed him among the project’s key backers as it earned the sport’s most prominent off-court honor.
The documentary’s recognition adds a notable milestone to Kerr’s public profile outside basketball, tied to a film addressing the impact of mass shootings on families.
