You know about the Triple Crown of Acting, right? It's when an actor manages to stretch across three mediums and snag all three of the top competitive prizes: Tony (theater), Emmy (television) and Oscar (film).
To date only 15 actors* have accomplished this but the number could jump to 17 soon. Currently the rarified list reads like so...
Jack Albertson (Tony: 65, Oscar: 69, Emmy: 75)
Anne Bancroft (Tony: 58, Oscar: 63, Emmy: 99)
Ingrid Bergman (Oscar: 45, Tony: 47, Emmy: 60)
Shirley Booth (Tony: 49, Oscar: 53, Emmy: 62)
Melvyn Douglas (Tony: 60, Oscar: 64, Emmy: 68) Did you know that this Hud star was Illeanna Douglas's grandfather? I certainly didn't.
Jeremy Irons (Tony: 84, Oscar: 91, Emmy: 97)
