Marvin Hamlisch was the youngest student ever admitted to Manhattan's Juilliard School of Music. For his piano audition he transposed Goodnight, Irene into different keys on demand. He was seven at the time. This year, at 29, he became the first individual ever to win three Academy Awards in one night: the first for his adaptation of Ragtime Composer Scott Joplin's music for The Sting, the second and third for the score and title song of The Way We Were. After his final sprint to center stage, Hamlisch said to the audience: "I think...
