Jeanne Eagels, a late actress, was nominated posthumously. Since its establishment, the prize has gone to 77 different actresses. With four Oscars, Katharine Hepburn holds the record for most prizes in this category. She was followed by Jacklyn Jones, Ginger Rogers, and Marilyn Monroe. Eagels, who died at age 39, was among the first actors to be nominated for an Oscar. She is also known for being one of the few female stars in Hollywood during the 1930s. Married to actor John Gilbert, she played various roles on screen including a dual role as both a good and bad witch named Merle Streep. Eagels first movie was titled "The First Year" and it was released in 1916. She then went back home to Ireland, but returned to America two years later. Here, she continued to act in more than 50 movies until she died in 1937 from tuberculosis. Her body was brought to California where a funeral service was held and she was buried in Los Angeles County Cemetery. However, in 1990 her remains were moved to Holy Cross Church in Dublin where she was laid to rest next to her husband. In 1991, the American Film Institute (AFI) voted Eagels' performance in "The First Year" as the best supporting actress debut ever made.
