Yes. The first actress to win both awards was Helen Hayes, who won the 1970

Best Supporting Actress award for "Airport" 39 years after she won the 1931/32 Best Actress award for "The Sin of Madelon Claudet."

Since then, other actresses who have performed the double-category feat are:

  • Ingrid Bergman -- (1944 Best Actress for "Gaslight"; 1956 Best Actress for "Anastasia"; and 1974 Best Supporting Actress for "Murder On the Orient Express").
  • Maggie Smith -- (1969 Best Actress for "The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie"; 1978 Best Supporting Actress for "California Suite."
  • Meryl Streep -- (1979 Best Supporting Actress for "Kramer vs. Kramer"; 1982 Best Actress for "Sophie's Choice").
  • Jessica Lange -- (1982 Best Supporting Actress for "Tootsie"; 1994 Best Actress for "Blue Sky").
