#1) Is Spencer Tracy. Kate and Spence were 'together' for 3 decades though Tracy was abusive to her especially when drinking. They loved each other, that was apparent. The relationship lasted until Tracy's death, and the mutual respect of all concerned prevented any scandalous exposure - a unique occurrence in an age when suchh arrangements could have caused censure, damaged reputations, and ruined careers. Tracy was a deeply religious Catholic man and refused to divorce his wife though he and wife Louise separated. To his credit, he was an incredible actor. He became the character he played. In 1937 and 38 Spencer Tracy set a precedent in the film industry by earning back-to-back Oscars for his roles in "Captains Courageous" and in "Boys Town." "Time" magazine declared Tracy "Cinema's number one actor's actor".

#4) is of course Kate (Katherine Hepburn). She not only won 4 Oscars She was nominated 8 other times make a total of 12. She was in over 40 films from 1932 - 1994. In her later years she suffered from arthitis adn benign esential tremor, a saking condition. She was a self determined woman who made her own career.
