Cloris Leachman

(CBS/AP) Who has the most Emmys won by an actor, male or female? Mary Tyler Moore? Johnny Chase? Bill Cosby? Bea Arthur? Nope. Cloris Leachman. Pictures: Emmy nominees 2011Pictures: Creative Arts Emmys She had a chance to top herself at last week’s Creative Arts Emmy ceremony, set to air this Saturday on ReelzChannel, for her guest-starring role on “Raising Hope.” Leachman plays the only occasionally lucid Maw Maw on the Fox sitcom, which also earned star Martha Plimpton a nomination for outstanding lead actress in a comedy series. The 85-year-old Leachman has won one Daytime and eight Primetime Emmy awards, but – spoiler alert – she lost out on her 10th trophy to “Glee” guest actress Gwyneth Paltrow. Still, Leachman’s Emmy record remains intact. “Well, I used to be tied with Sir Lawrence Olivier,” she said. “But he was kind enough to die, and then I was able to continue. So I thought that was very, very big of him especially since he’s English.” Leachman, whose first credits date back to the late 1940s, is perhaps best known for her work on the `70s sitcom classic “The Mary Tyler Moore Show.” She said the Emmys have been cause for a friendly competition between her and her “MTM” costars, fellow multiple winners Moore and Ed Asner. “I remember Mary saying, `You have nine? I thought you had eight.’ `No, I...

SH: I am putting the finishing touches to my next psychological thriller, “Kind of Cruel,” and working on an outline for a TV series. In my head, I am also working on ideas for a self-help/popular psychology book for embarrassed British people, called ‘How to protect your physical and psychological boundaries without looking like an idiot in public’. JG: What surprised you the most during the writing process? SH: Two things really surprised me while I was writing “The Cradle in the Grave.” After all the research I did into the real-life cases of Clark, Cannings and Patel, I ended up none the wiser as to their respective guilt or innocence. I wasn’t even able to make a guess, in any of the three cases. There was plenty of evidence to support whatever story a person might want to tell. That was a little scary. Also, I found that I had sympathy for everyone involved. Doctors who send innocent women to prison for the murders of their babies don’t do it because they’re evil. They do it mistakenly, because they genuinely want to protect and defend children. And women who smother their babies don’t do it because they’re wicked, but rather because they’re desperate and ill. If society was more compassionate and less harshly judgmental, more people could admit to the mistakes they’d made and there would be fewer unsolved mysteries. JG: What would you be doing if you weren’t a writer? SH: I would either be a country singer in the style of Emmylou Harris or Nanci Griffith, or else I would be a psychotherapist – a bossy one, who would get cross if patients didn’t promise to leave their unsuitable partners and tell their controlling parents to get stuffed immediately.
