For more than six decades, Streisand has had one of the most successful careers in the history of show business. She is the only artist ever to receive Oscar, Tony, Emmy, Grammy, Directors Guild of America, Golden Globe, National Medal of Arts and Peabody Awards and France's Légion d'Honneur as well as the American Film Institute's Lifetime Achievement Award. She is also the first female film director to receive the Kennedy Center Honors.
With last year's release of her album "Partners," Streisand now is also the only recording artist or group to achieve No. 1 albums in each of six consecutive decades of her career.
Streisand made her Broadway debut - and received her first Tony Award nomination - in 1962 for her comedic portrayal of Miss Marmelstein in I Can Get It For You Wholesale. She was then signed to play the great comedienneFanny Brice in the Broadway production of Funny Girl. When the curtain came down at the Winter Garden Theatre on March 26, 1964, the star and the show were major hits. Her distinctly original musical-comedy performance won her a second Tony nomination. In 1970, she was honored with a special Tony Award as "Star of the Decade."
Foxx's recent projects include HORRIBLE BOSSES 2, the ANNIE remake, and MEAN BUSINESS ON NORTH GANSON STREET. He recently starred in A MILLION WAYS TO DIE IN THE WEST, THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN 2 and DJANGO UNCHAINED.
