The versatile Hope, who hosted or co-hosted the Academy Awards a record 18 times between 1940 and 1978, frequently made jokes about never winning an award for his acting. But he actually received five special tributes from the Academy during his lifetime, including an honorary Oscar in 1953 and the Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award in 1960.
