Let's not forget Rita Moreno.

*blank stare* Ummm...Rita who?

(Honestly, I'm not trying to be cute. I don't know who you mean.)

Rita Moreno's first famous role was in West Side Story with Natalie Wood. She's acted and danced in movies and on Broadway for many years since. She was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom on June 23, 2004.

Ummm...Rita who?

You really don't know who Rita Moreno is? How about Natalie Wood? Wow. Just Google Rita's image, great looking lady, even looked good well into her old age.

You've never watched the classic movie "West Side Story"?

I might be getting too old for FR, but I guess we need the new kids to keep it going.

Welcome to FR, keep up the good fight for me.

Rita Moreno:

For many MANY years the first and only performer to hold these awards -- an Oscar©, a Grammy©, a Tony©, and an Emmy©. She has been performing STEADILY from 1950 to 2005. There is no end to her energy!

IIRC, someone else has also won all these awards since then, but must not have been too memorable.

What sticks with me is that she started collecting these awards in the 50s. She was so good that the libs giving these awards overlooked the fact that she's Hispanic -- a level those "enlightened" folks didn't achieve too often.
