Luise Rainer (1910-2014) 🎭

Luise Rainer, who was born in Germany, made history as the first actress to win multiple Academy Awards, and the first to win multiple back-to-back. Despite a burgeoning career on film and stage in Vienna and Berlin, she moved to Hollywood in the 1930s because of Hitler’s rise in power. After only a few years in the U.S., she won her first Oscar for The Great Ziegfeld (1936). She played Anna Held, the common-law wife of theater producer Florenz Ziegfeld in the movie inspired by true events. After winning a second Academy Award for The Good Earth (1937), her career in MGM faltered and she later described her Oscars success as a curse. But her contributions have been recognized, with stars on both the Hollywood Walk of Fame and the Boulevard der Stars in Berlin.
