The award for best supporting actor went to Troy Kotsur for his role in “CODA.” He is the first deaf male actor ever to be nominated and to win an Oscar.
His Oscar milestone puts him in familiar company: His “CODA” co-star Marlee Matlin was the first deaf Oscar nominee and winner. She won best actress in 1987 for “Children of a Lesser God.”
Mr. Kotsur took the stage to applause and waving hands in the audience, which indicates applause in American sign language. In his signed acceptance speech, Mr. Kotsur dedicated his win to the deaf community, the CODA community, and the disabled community: “This is our moment.”
