On this day in 1962, Rita Moreno made history as the first Hispanic woman to win an Academy Award, taking home the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress for her iconic role as Anita in "West Side Story."⁠ ⁠ With a career spanning over 80 years, Moreno is one of the rare talents to achieve EGOT status, winning an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony.⁠ ⁠ We're proud to celebrate her incredible legacy with this photo from her 2013 induction into the Songbook Hall of Fame.
