is 84 today. Ms. Winters has won two Oscars, both for Best Actress in a Supporting Role. She won in 1960 for The Diary of Anne Frank and again in 1966 for A Patch of Blue. She was nominated for the Best Actress Oscar in 1952 for A Place in the Sun and nominated for Best Supporting Actress in 1973 for The Poseidon Adventure. Shelley Winters was so effective in The Poseidon Adventure that NewMexiKen actually thought she (the actress) had died (as she does in the film).
