Oscars

The first black woman to win an Academy Award was Hattie McDaniel, who received the 1939 Best Supporting Actress Oscar for her performance as Mammy in "Gone With the Wind." The first black woman to win the Best Actress Oscar was Halle Berry, who won for her 2001 performance as Leticia Musgrove in "Monster's Ball."

Neither iconic actor was ever honored with an Emmy Award. Griffith is most famous as Sheriff Andy Taylor on "The Andy Griffith Show." He was never nominated as the pillar of Mayberry. But co-star Don Knotts, who played Andy's jittery deputy Barney Fife, won five supporting actor Emmys for that role. Griffith received a lone Emmy nomination in 1981 for his dramatic portrayal in the NBC miniseries "Murder In Texas."

Hagman received two Emmy nominations as best actor in a drama series for his portrayal of J.R. Ewing on "Dallas." But he didn't win and received no other nominations during his long TV career. The late Barbara Bel Geddes, who played J.R.'s mother, "Miss Ellie," on the original "Dallas," was the only actor from that longrunning series to ever receive an acting Emmy. She won in 1980.

I would have to say Zdeno Chara....

Douglas Fairbanks, actor, one of the 36 founders of the Academy; and writer-director William C. de Mille, the first president of the Academy (and brother of Cecil B. de Mille).

The award for Best Costume Design for a black-and-white film went to Helen Rose for "I'll Cry Tomorrow." The award for a color film went to Charles LeMaire for "Love Is a Many Splendored Thing."

Yes, they are, as can be seen in old pictures of her, long before she became famous, as well as her daugher Shiloh who has her lips.

The male who has won the most oscars is Walt Disney with 22 oscars. He also won the most oscars in one year which was 4 in 1953. The female who has won the most oscars is Edith Head with 8 oscars, all for costume design.

To the best of my knowledge no Oscar ( academy award) has ever been awarded to an Animal. Lassie was a Collie. several dogs, were of necessity, involved for different types of stunts- Lassie fighting a more dangerous animal was of course done with trick photography as were forest fire scenes, etc. the ASPCA would not permit the Dog to be in real life-threartening peril. preoccupation with downbeat subjects turned many adult viewers off. Lassie ( TV version- Provost-Lockhart) had overtones of situation tragedy- and the program was DEVOID of any humor, even wisecracks.
