Luise Ranier trivia

She was the first actor to win multiple Academy Awards, and the first to win them back to back.

She was the longest-lived Oscar winner, 13 days shy of her 105th birthday.

In 1938 she traveled to Europe, where she worked with children displaced by the Spanish Civil War.

She spent her last few years living in a flat that previously had been occupied by Vivien Leigh.

She was the youngest person to receive a second Oscar (at age 28).

She said, "I always considered myself the world's worst actress."
