Note
  1. ^ Certain award groups do not simply award one winner. They acknowledge several different recipients, have runners-up, and have third place. Since this is a specific recognition and is different from losing an award, runner-up mentions are considered wins in this award tally. For simplification and to avoid errors, each award in this list has been presumed to have had a prior nomination.

Cloris Leachman was an American actress and comedian who received numerous accolades throughout her career. She won eight Primetime Emmy Awards from 22 nominations, making her the most nominated and, along with Julia Louis-Dreyfus, most awarded performer in Emmy history.[1] She was also the recipient of an Academy Award, a British Academy Film Award, a Daytime Emmy Award, and a Golden Globe Award. In 2011, she was inducted in the Television Hall of Fame.

After studying at the Actors Studio, she appeared in Peter Bogdanovich's drama film The Last Picture Show (1971), for which she won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress and the BAFTA Award for Best Actress in a Supporting Role. She also received two nominations for the Golden Globe Award for Best Actress for the comedy films Charley and the Angel (1973) and Mel Brooks' Young Frankenstein (1974), and a Screen Actors Guild Award nomination for Outstanding Female Actor in a Supporting Role for the romantic comedy Spanglish (2004).

From 1970 to 1975, Leachman starred in The Mary Tyler Moore Show as Phyllis Lindstrom, Mary Richards' snobbish, self-absorbed and interfering friend and downstairs neighbor. The role earned her two Primetime Emmy Awards for both Outstanding Supporting Actress and Outstanding Guest Actress in a Comedy Series. In 1975, Leachman left the show to star in the spin-off series Phyllis (1975–1977), which won her the Golden Globe Award for Best Actress in a Television Series – Musical or Comedy. Her other Emmy Award–winning work includes the television film A Brand New Life (1973), special appearances in the variety sketch show Cher (1975), the ABC Afterschool Special production The Woman Who Willed a Miracle (1983), and the drama series Promised Land (1998), and a recurring role as Ida in Malcolm in the Middle (2000–2006).
