Kathryn Bigelow with her Oscars for Best Director and Best Picture, at the Governors Ball following the 82nd Academy Awards March 7, 2010. When asked for her reaction to becoming the first woman to win a Best Director Oscar, she replied, "Well, first of all, I hope I'm the first of many. And, of course, I'd love to just think of myself as a filmmaker, and I long for the day when a modifier can be a moot point. But I'm ever grateful if I can inspire some young, intrepid, tenacious male or female filmmaker and have them feel that the impossible is possible and never give up on your dream."
