Pictured: Russell Williams II was the first African American to win two Oscars, as a sound mixer for his work on Glory and Dances With Wolves. He has also won two Emmy’s and been a professor of film and media arts at Howard University, UCLA, USC, Cal State Northridge and American University. Check out the courses that he is currently teaching HERE.

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!
