EGOT #11 is Scott Rudin. He's been on the Naughty list for a few years - - it's easy to do a little shorthand and think of him as a #MeToo guy, but it's more accurate to call him a #YouAss guy.
He's the only EGOT to date who is primarily a producer. I'm choosing two of his Tony-winning musicals as the D/M pair:
Diva: *The Book of Mormon*
Mensch: *Passion*
Scott Rudin (born 1958), a film, TV, and theater producer received his fourth distinct award in 2012. Between 1984 and 2021, Rudin received a total of 21 awards making him, together with Alan Menken, the person with the most awards won among the people who have won all four awards in competitive categories. Rudin is the first winner who is primarily a producer.
