Meryl Streep beat her in the number of Oscar nominations, when she received her 13th Oscar nod for Adaptation (2002). However, Hepburn still reigns as the only 4-time Oscar recipient for acting. When Cate Blanchett won the Best Supporting Actress Oscar for The Aviator (2004), Hepburn became the first previous Oscar winner to become an Oscar-winning movie role.

(202,958 posts)In fact, my college class voted to ask Katharine Hepburn to speak at graduation - naturally, we didn't get her. If I recall, it was a female priest.
And I'm interested in that last interview. Wasn't that also the title of her autobiography? I'm pretty sure that I read that back in the day. Search says it came out in 1993.

The whole cast was astonishingly gifted, and only Peter O'Toole could serve as an effective foil for her in the role of Henry II.
