Teresa Wright’s flame blazed brightly in the 1940s and 1950s. She remains the only actress to receive Academy Award nominations for her first three films. Her first movie role in 1941 earned her an Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actress. Her second movie part, in 1942... resulted in a Best Supporting Actress nomination and this time she won the award. In her third movie, also in 1942, she was nominated for Best Actress.

Teresa ... continued to provoke controversy. Rossi eventually had to reprimand her for making foundations in Andalusia at Beas and Seville. By late 1575 the Inquisition was investigating her on several charges, and Carmelite officials had divested her of all leadership roles and had ordered her to stay in a Castilian convent. She probably owed permission to make more foundations, which came with the 1580 recognition of the Discalced as a separate province, to aristocratic friends holding high church and state positions.
