Patty Duke

Patty Duke (1946-2016) was a true show business legend whose career spanned six decades. Her Oscar win for her role as Helen Keller in The Miracle Worker made her, at the time, the youngest Academy Award winner.

In addition to her acting, she became the second woman ever elected president of the Screen Actors Guild.
