Does anyone know who was the youngest person to ever win the Best Actress/Actor Tony Award? Do they have an age limit?

I don't know for sure but I'm going to guess Daisy Egan for Secret Garden. I think she as about 10 or 11 at the time.

Daisy Eagan won for Best Featured Actress,not Best Actress. I think Andrea McArdle may be the youngest person to be nominated for Best Actress (Annie),but she did not win.
The youngest person to win Best Actress in a Musical is still Liza Minnelli,I believe. She was 19 when she won for Flora,the Red Menace.

Liza at 19 ... Look at her competition in 1965.
Elizabeth Allen in Do I Hear a Waltz?
Nancy Dussault in Bajour
Liza Minnelli in Flora, the Red Menace
Inga Swenson in Baker Street
Not the greatest year. So when someone doesn't win in a strong year, such as this year, it might not be a reflection on talent, but on a wealth of riches!
