Wikipedia says Brennan was actually born in Lynn, on July, 25,  1894, a few miles from his family's Swampscott home.

The other male actor with three Big-Os is Jack Nicholson.

Katharine Hepburn is tops in Oscar acting awards. She won four for Best Actress.

And Ingrid Bergman won three Academy Awards for acting.

Other Swampscott Oscar connection: Swampscott High graduate Bryan Buckley is up for a 2013 Oscar in the Best Live-Action Short Film category.

Bryan Buckley was nominated for his 17-minute film Asad, about a child refugee from a war-torn fishing village in Somalia, according to Cinemasalem.com 

And the host of this year's Oscars is Seth MacFarlane, who drew on the seaside community in a couple ways for his movie Ted.

For one, the main character, John, played by Mark Wahlberg, was born in Swampscott, according to the movie plot.

And as many Swampscott people will remember — a major scene in the film was shot inside and outside a Swampscott home on Atlantic Avenue back in May of 2011.
