Knock, knock.  Is anybody home?

Top of page repeat:

And here we go with a unique quartet:

Helen Hayes
Rita Moreno
Audrey Hepburn
Whoopi Goldberg

Yes, you might find two more names that you think could be on this list, but there IS something that makes this a totally unique quartet.



More clues..... the commonality can be achieved by any performer.  To date, 6 men have achieved the same commonality. Helen Hayes was first of all 10 (or 12 - see first hint above) performers to achieve this.

This looks like one of those Oscar, Emmy, Tony type things.
 
They have all won all three?

I can only think Grammys as well, or instead of one of the awards.
 
I will say all four and wait for the clue.

Status: offline 		Yes, these four women all won all four of the awards: Oscar, Grammy, Tony, and Emmy.  (How's that for a quartet within a quartet?)  Barbara Streisand and Liza Minnelli have both received all four, but each won three and received one of them as a special (non-competitive) award.

Go ahead, Mr. Wood.
Regards, Mr. Hughes - LOL!

Hmmm, no. A couple may be relatively fast, but that's not the link.

Let's add endangered.  The hippopatomus is THE most dangerous land mammal, but the rhinocerus is endangered, making my answer:

most dangerous of the endangered sharks
most dangerous of the endangered turtles
most dangerous of the endangered birds
most dangerous of the endangered land mammals

Status: offline 		Thanks, Ebony.

Keeping with the quartet (4th largest, 4 awards) within a quartet theme:

Atlanta
Chicago
Denver
Philadelphia

Alphabetical order has nothing to do with commonality.  It is in alpha order because what I cut and pasted was in alpha order.  Maybe the first hint will be to re-write the quartet in the order in which they came to have the commonality...... Oh, .... that's a hint isn't it?  Again, a unique quartet.
