Pictured: Cheryl Boone Isaacs is the first African American woman to run a studio marketing department, and the first to serve on the Academy’s Board Of Governors. A member of the Public Relations Branch, she and her colleagues play an essential role in the way that movies are received by the public. It was Isaacs’ team, for example, that decided that the iconic picture of Tom Hanks sitting on a bench should be the key publicity image to represent best picture winner Forrest Gump, a sweeping decades-long historical fiction that could have potentially been received in any number of ways.

As a reminder, Bold font is for confirmed AMPAS members that we are able to document conclusively. Standard font is for confirmed invitees, most of whom presumably accept. Italic font is for those believed to be members, but whose status has not been verified. Read why we are so cautious HERE.

I will be adding more pictures, as well as credits, awards, and of course new names as the project proceeds. And don’t forget to send me recommendations of Oscar voters I may have missed!
