Steven Spielberg has won his first Grammy Award, becoming just the 22nd artist in history to achieve EGOT status — having won an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar and Tony. The 79-year-old filmmaker won the Grammy for best music film for Music for John Williams, a documentary he produced. Directed by Laurent Bouzereau, the film chronicles the seven-decade career of legendary composer John Williams, whose work has defined the soundscape of modern cinema. Spielberg and Williams began their long-running creative partnership in 1974 with The Sugarland Express, Spielberg’s feature film debut. Six others, including James Earl Jones and Liza Minnelli, have achieved the status through honorary awards recognising lifetime achievement, such as the Grammy Legend Award.
