So we have here, a list of all the winners of the Best Actress Oscar. The oldest recipient of the award was Jessica Tandy who won with Driving Miss Daisy in 1989 when she was 80 years old. The youngest was Marlee Matlin, in 1986 with Children of a Lesser God, at 21 years of age.

Katharine Hepburn won a record four Oscars, in 1933, 1967, 1968, and 1981. Eleven women have won the award twice.

1968 was notable for having a tie between two winners, Katharine Hepburn and Barbra Streisand.
