Two Best Actress Oscars - one for playing Scarlett in Gone With the Wind in 1939, and one for playing Blanche in A Streetcar Named Desire in 1951. The only other actresses with two Best Actress Oscars are Katharine Hepburn, Ingrid Bergman, Bette Davis, Olivia de Havilland, Sally Field, Jane Fonda, Luise Rainer, Elizabeth Taylor, and Jodie Foster. Vivien also received a Tony on Broadway for 'best musical comedy performance' in April 1963, for her role in Tovarich.

Pretty darn well! After receiving 14 nominations, "Titanic" won 11 tying "Ben Hur" (1959) for the most Oscars for a single film. The winners are: It's kind of hard for us to remember that this euphoria and this success is for a film that's based on a real event that happened, where real people died, that shocked the world in 1912. I'd just like everybody to go with me for just a second.

Heinlein won four Hugo awards for best novel (an unmatched record), the first Grand Master Nebula ever awarded, the Sequoyah award for best novel for young people, and was nominated for a dozen more major awards. All of his awards and nominations were for novels; his short-fiction days largely predated the major science fiction awards. However, some awards for past years are now being issued (the "Retro Hugos," for example) and Heinlein's list of awards has continued to grow.

Because I just couldn't keep up with them. I felt really bad, because I would have a bunch of people waiting and waiting for their awards, and never have the time to sit down, go through the applications, personalize the awards (since I prefer giving out awards that can't be taken and just put on anyone's site and say they won them), and mail them out.

Well, I do hope that I have earned them all, but to be honest I don't know. If I see an award that I would like to have a chance at winning, I will apply for it. But many of my awards were given to me without applying for them. That really means a lot to me too :)

To my shock, no the film was not even nominated for any Academy Awards, but Matthew Broderick did receive a 1987 Golden Globe Nomination for Best Performance by an Actor in a Motion Picture - Comedy/Musical.

The first five books were chosen by the American Library Association as "Quick Picks for Reluctant Young Adult Readers" in 2002.

Klaatu's second album, "Hope" won two major Canadian music awards, including a Juno which was presented to Terry Brown in March 1978.

Tolkien won few awards during his lifetime. Awards for books were not so commonplace as they are today and, even today, awards rarely spot a classic in the making. In April 1938, The Hobbit won a prize, awarded by the New York Herald Tribune, as the best juvenile (ie written for children) story of the season. (Letters of JRR Tolkien; letter 28.) In 1957, The Lord of the Rings won the International Fantasy Award at the 15th World Science Fiction Convention.

Yes. Two. Morton Stevens won them for the music to the episodes "Hookman" and "A Thousand Pardons, You're Dead."

How the statuette got the nickname Oscar isn't clear. A popular story has been that an Academy librarian and eventual executive director, Margaret Herrick, thought it resembled her Uncle Oscar and said so. A reporter standing conveniently nearby is alleged to have overheard her and helped brand the golden guy. In any case, by the sixth Awards Presentation in 1934, Hollywood columnist Sidney Skolsky used the name in his column in reference to Katharine Hepburn's first Best Actress win.

It is up to the tournament director to determine the awards that are given at an event. Currently at the Houston Tournament, there are three awards given (champion, design, and sportsmanship awards) along with medallions for each participant. Medallions for your tournament can be ordered directly from the supplier, George Alan Awards @ 713-868-2072. Trophies are often made from the mission pieces by the tournament.

If you win one of the awards Futuresonic shall issue you with a letter of intent. On receipt of this you should confirm your artists, venue and technical suppliers, and provide Futuresonic with confirmed details in accordance with press deadlines supplied. A contract shall be issued when confirmed details have been supplied in full. The award will be payable in full on the night of the event by direct bank transfer.

If you do not win one of the awards you will need to consider whether you will still be able to present your event as a part of EVNTS 2007. In submitting an event to EVNTS 2007 and/or EVNT Competition, the event organiser agrees to take full responsibility for the management and delivery of that event. Futuresonic will help match-make promoters to venues, but responsibility for managing relationships with venues rests with the event organiser.
