Three of Max Steiner's scores won the [[Academy Award for Best Original Score]]: ''[[The Informer (1935 film)|The Informer]]'' (1935), ''[[Now, Voyager]]'' (1942), and ''[[Since You Went Away]]'' (1944).<ref name="voyager" />{{rp|xvii}} Steiner received a certificate for ''The Informer''. He originally received plaques for ''Now, Voyager'' and ''Since You Went Away'', but those plaques were replaced with [[Academy Awards|Academy Award]] statuettes in 1946. As an individual, Steiner was nominated for a total of 20 Academy Awards, and won two. Prior to 1939, the academy recognized a studio's music department, rather than the individual composer, with a nomination in the scoring category. During this time, five of Steiner's scores including [[The Lost Patrol (1934 film)|''The Lost Patrol'']] and [[The Charge of the Light Brigade (1936 film)|''The Charge of the Light Brigade'']] were nominated, but the academy does not consider these nominations to belong to Max Steiner himself. Consequently, even though Steiner's score for ''The Informer'' won the Academy Award in 1936, the academy does not officially consider Steiner as the individual winner of the award, as Steiner accepted the award on behalf of [[RKO Pictures|RKO]]'s music department of which he was the department head. Steiner's 20 nominations make him the third most nominated individual in the history of the scoring categories, behind [[John Williams]] and [[Alfred Newman (composer)|Alfred Newman]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://awardsdatabase.oscars.org/|title=The Official Academy Awards Database|website=The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences}}</ref>
