Photography
Dame Elizabeth Taylor
The stories of her Oscar win for Telefon Butterfield 8 (1960) have grown legendary. It is generally accepted as truth that she won Oscar voters by a vote of sympathy, because of the recent death of her husband, Mike Todd, and her near-fatal illness and emergency tracheotomy to save her life (her scar was very visible on Oscar night).
