   Vance and Bassett (pictured above) recently completed their first book, Friends: A Love Story that chronicles their story about healthy relationships, love and family.
   “ER” holds the distinction of being recognized as the most Emmy-nominated series in the history of television with 122 nominations. The show’s 15th and final season begins Sept. 25.
