Who Has Received The Most Oscars In History?

The individual who received the most Oscars was Walt Disney,

There are three films which have won 11 Oscars each - Ben Hur in 1952, Titanic

As for individual performers, even after her death Katherine Hepburn still

a few other actors have managed as many as three - these are Walter Brennan,
Jack Lemmon and Ingrid Bergman.

The youngest ever winner was Shirley Temple at the age of 5, while the oldest were Geroge Burns and Jessica Tandy who were both 80 (though not in the same film.) However, both Myrna  Loy and Groucho Marx were awarded honorary Oscars at the age of 83.
