Who has the most stars on the Walk of Fame?
Gene Autry is the only person to be awarded stars in the five fields recognized on the Walk of Fame: film, TV, radio, live performance and music. During his lifetime, Autry emerged as both a top money-making entertainer and a powerful businessman. As his 1998 obituary said, “He was enormously successful at almost anything he tried—radio, records, songwriting, television, real estate and business, as well as movies and museums.” The late Bob Hope and romantic crooner Tony Martin, who turned 96 on Dec. 25, 2009, are next with four stars each. Thirty-three people, including Frank Sinatra, Danny Kaye and Jack Benny, have been awarded stars in three fields. Only two women have three stars, Dinah Shore and Gale Storm, a radio and television star best known for the program “My Little Margie.” In addition, there are four special markers at the corner of Hollywood Boulevard and Vine Street to commemorate the Apollo Landing in 1969.
