Ronald Reagan from 1940 to
1948. Reagan became president, but Wyman outdid
him as an actor. She was nominated three times for a best actress Oscar and won for her role
as Belinda McDonald, a deaf mute who is raped by a bully in a Nova Scotia
fishing village in Johnny Belinda (1948). Her other nominated
performances were for her roles in The Blue Veil (1951) and
