Sammy Davis, Jr. Grammy Award for ''Lifetime Achievement''. The National Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences bestowed this weighty honor on the performer in 2001. Sammy Davis, Jr. earned the moniker ''Mr. Show Business'' for his talent in all aspects of performing, from singing and dancing to acting and comedy across every medium: Broadway, television and film. Recipients of this high award, according to the NARAS, ''have made creative contributions of outstanding artistic significance.'' Davis was twice Grammy-nominated previously for his songs ''Candy Man'' and ''What Kind of Fool Am I,'' but this, along with his Grammy Hall of Fame award, are the sole Grammy awards that Davis received. His fellow Lifetime Achievement honorees that year included The Beach Boys, Tony Bennett, Bob Marley and The Who. Crystal award made by Tiffany & Co. features the iconic Grammy phonograph image.
