Former President Barack Obama is adding to his trophy collection.

On Sunday (September 7), Obama took home the Outstanding Narrator award at the Creative Arts Emmys for his work on the Netflix natural history series Our Oceans, per Newsweek.

The Creative Arts Emmys honor technical and specialty achievements ahead of the main Primetime Emmys broadcast. Obama won the Outstanding Narrator award over prominent nominees, including David Attenborough and Tom Hanks, marking his third win in the category. He was not in attendance at this year's ceremony to accept the honor.

The former president previously took home Emmys for narrating Netflix’s Our Great National Parks (2022) and Working: What We Do All Day (2023). Our Oceans, a five-part series, explores marine life across the world’s oceans. All three projects were produced through his production company, Higher Ground.

Other winners on Sunday included Kendrick Lamar, the Oscars telecast, and the SNL 50th anniversary special, which took home 11 awards.

The 77th Primetime Emmy Awards are set to air on September 14.
