	Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award - Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences
		By 1937 Hersholt (and his once-maligned voice) began what was to become a 17-year-long career portraying the kind, generous and ethical doctor on radio, and in 1939 RKO produced "Meet Dr. Christian," which led to a six-film series for himself.
		Hersholt died on June 2, 1956, and almost immediately the Academy established the Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award, bestowed upon an “individual in the motion picture industry whose humanitarian efforts have brought credit to the industry.”
		Hersholt’s grave in Glendale’s Forest Lawn Memorial Park is marked with a statue of Klods Hans, a Hans Christian Anderson hero who went forth from Denmark into the world, hoping to win the heart of a princess.

		On the other hand, the controlled hysteria of best actress Halle Berry making her acceptance speech made the wait almost worth it.
