Joanne Woodward is an American actress and producer.

She won the Academy Award for Best Actress for her portrayal of a woman with dissociative identity disorder in the drama The Three Faces of Eve (1957). She was Oscar-nominated for her roles as an unmarried schoolteacher going through a sexual awakening in Rachel, Rachel (1968), a New York City housewife in Summer Wishes, Winter Dreams (1973), and an old-fashioned woman living in the country in Mr. & Mrs. Bridge (1990).
Woodward is the widow of actor Paul Newman, with whom she often collaborated either as a co-star, or as an actor in films directed or produced by him. Woodward, as well as Newman, is a Tony Award away from achieving the Triple Crown of Acting status. In 1960, she became one of the first people who receive the star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.[2] In 1993, she was awarded with Kennedy Center Honors.
Upon the death of Olivia de Havilland in July 2020 she became the oldest living Best Actress Academy Award winner.
