http://www.oscar.com/legacy/history.html The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.. ..is a professional honorary organization comprised of over 6,000 motion picture artists and craftsmen. Though most famous for its yearly awards, the Academy's general goal is the advancement of the arts and sciences of motion pictures. Within that, the Academy fosters cultural, educational and technological cooperation among its members; it provides a forum for various branches of the industry; it represents the viewpoint of its members; and it encourages educational activities between the professional community and the public. What it does not do is promote economic, labor, or political matters. Organized in May 1927 as a nonprofit corporation, its original 36 members included both production executives and film luminaries. Douglas Fairbanks, Sr. was the first president. Others have included Frank Capra, Bette Davis, Jean Hersholt, George Stevens, Robert E. Wise, Karl Malden, Arthur Hiller and Robert Rehme. Current president Frank Pierson took office in August 2001. 답변이 될런지 모르겠네요. :-) 덧붙여 말하자면, 솔직히 오스카 시상식 개최하는 거 외에 정말 하는 일이 있는지는 모르겠음. :-P ---- 퍼스트 건담 41화 : "아아.. 아므로, 시간이 보여요." 라라아 아줌마, 타임슬립해서 잘먹고 잘살고 있다에 한 표. 김도연 Kim Do-Yeon : gandalfthegrey@hanmail.net
