The film academy announced Tuesday that the replacement award will reside at Howard University’s Chadwick A. Boseman College of Fine Arts.
FILE-Actress Hattie Mc Daniel is shown with the plaque she received for her portrayal in"Gone With The Wind" in 1939. The award was for Best Supporting Role by an Actress, and was made at the 12th annual Academy Awards ceremony. Hattie McDaniel's best supporting actress Oscar in 1939 for "Gone With the Wind" is one of the most important moments in Academy Award history.
Now, the Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences has created a replacement of McDaniel's legendary Academy Award that it's gifting to Howard University. Upon her death in 1952, McDaniel bequeathed her Oscar to Howard University where it was displayed at the drama department until the late ’60s. The film academy, along with the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures, announced Tuesday that the replacement award will reside at the university's Chadwick A. Boseman College of Fine Arts. The Oscar will be presented in a ceremony titled "Hattie's Come Home" on Oct. 1 on the Washington D.C. university campus."Hattie McDaniel was a groundbreaking artist who changed the course of cinema and impacted generations of performers who followed her.
McDaniel's award was a plaque, not a statuette, as all supporting acting winners received from 1936 to 1942. During the 12th Academy Awards, McDaniel was seated at a segregated table on the far side of the room at the Ambassador Hotel. "I sincerely hope I shall always be a credit to my race and to the motion picture industry," McDaniel said accepting the award. "My heart is too full to tell you just how I feel, and may I say thank you and God bless you."
