That could well be the end of that list.
By my count, only one person has won both an Oscar and a Nobel Prize in Literature, the two most prestigious cultural awards in the world: G.B. Shaw.
Several other Nobel Prize winners have been nominated for an Oscar: John Steinbeck, Jean-Paul Sartre and Harold Pinter (maybe others as well). Others have written screenplays, including at least William Faulkner and Gabriel García Márquez. Halldór K. Laxness briefly tried his luck as a screenwriter in Hollywood, but never got any of his screenplays into production.
