	The Shawshank Redemption (1994)
Stephen King has written novels, novellas, short stories, poems, serials, e-books, a comic book, a CD-ROM, and screenplays for movies (also acting, directing and producing), TV (series, mini-series, music video) and internet, and is making a musical.
	The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Volume 1 (1981)			Not Rated
Douglas Adams appeared in a Monty Python sketch. He wrote Hitchhiker's Guide for radio, novels, TV, albums, and stage production. He has also produced a video game, and played guitar for Pink Floyd. He was working on a movie when he died.
	Funny Girl (1968)
Barbra Streisand was the first to win the quadruple crown: Oscar, Tony, Emmy, Grammy. Not only did she win her oscars for acting and singing, but she writes, directs, composes, and produces.
	West Side Story (1961)			Not Rated
If you discount Barbra's Tony for not being in a competitive category, and Helen Hayes' Grammy for not being in a singing category, then Rita Moreno was the first person to win the quadrupel crown.
	How I Won the War (1967)			Not Rated
With the Beatles, John Lennon not only recorded music, but had his own radio program (From Us to You), made several movies, and set the TV ratings record on Ed Sullivan. Solo, he published books of his poetry and displayed his art in New York galleries.
	Private Parts (1997)
He's an egocentric radio personality that got a TV talk show and wrote a self-promoting book that was turned into a bad movie... That hardly qualifies.
