The Irving G. Thalberg Memorial Award

 

The Irving G. Thalberg Memorial Award

The Irving G. Thalberg Memorial Award is awarded periodically (although not every year) at the Academy Awards ceremonies to "Creative producers, whose bodies of work reflect a consistently high quality of motion picture production." The award is named for Irving Thalberg, legendary head of the Production Division of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, who developed the company's reputation for sophisticated films. The trophy for award recipients is in the form of a bust of Thalberg rather than the familiar "Oscar" statuette.

For this award, the year shown is the year when the award was actually presented.
