The Academy Members Project N

Pictured: Sometimes the members of the Academy surprise you, and sometimes they are exactly who you imagined they would be. Rest assured that with twelve nominations and three wins, Jack Nicholson gets a vote.

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!
