Tyler Cowen asks:

In one year Al Gore won a Nobel Peace Prize, had a bestselling book, and won an Oscar.  What are other historical examples of a person having multiple notable recognitions or achievements within a single year?

Peter responds:

In the past week my son was born, my mother told me she was proud of me, my wife said she loved me, I got an unexpected raise at work and found $20. Al Gore can suck it.
