Best Professional Artist Trivia Question

While admiring the stark simplicity of James Nicoll’s pie graph showing 98% of all Best Pro Artist Hugo winners are men, I recalled another statistical truth. Once voters find an artist they love, he tends to keep winning the category for years on end! Thus, two trivia questions.

Question 1: More than half of the 58 Best Pro Artist Hugos have been won by three people. Who are they?

Question 2: In the Pro Artist category there have been more repeat Hugo winners than single winners. Which number pair below reflects the historic ratio between multiple and solitary winners?

(a) 11-6
(b) 13-6
(c) 15-8

The answers follow the jump.
