Meryl Streep

She's 62 years old, and while other older actresses like her groan and moan about the lack of meaty roles available to them, Meryl Streep seems to pick up more and more awards with every passing year. She's a prime example of an exemplary artist, applies no limitations to herself, and no societal norm has ever been a barrier to her.

She's got 16 Academy Award nominations, 25 Golden Globe nominations and most recently even won the Oscar for Best Actress for her portrayal of Maragaret Thatcher in 'The Iron Lady.' We suppose it wasn't too hard for this icon to imitate another!
