The Fondas won 3 Oscars: Henry one for Best Actor, and his daughter Jane won two for Best Actress. The Huston family won 3 Oscars: Walter for Best Supporting Actor, his son won John for Director, and his daughter Anjelica for Best Supporting Actress. Liza Minnelli won an Oscar for Best Actress, her father Vincente Minnelli won for Best Director, and her mother Judy Garland received a special Oscar for her performance in The Wizard of Oz. The Coens are family: Brothers Joel and Ethan Coen won 4 Oscars, and Joel's wife Frances McDormand won one for Best Actress. Composer Alfred Newman won 11 Oscars, his brother composer Lionel Newman won an Oscar for Score and their nephew composer Randy Newman won an Oscar for Best Song. Alfred's son composer Thomas Newman is an 8-time Oscar nominee and will be a winner to in the near future. Ethel and Lionel Barrymore have each won one Oscar, and I believe Drew Barrymore's day will come too.
