People: Paul Newman

by People Magazine

One of the last larger-than-life movie stars, Paul Newman will forever be remembered for his rugged cool and rascally charm and for the bluest eyes this side of Sinatra. Adored by women, admired by men, he racked up unforgettable roles in classic movies The Hustler, The Sting, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid in his more than half a century as a Hollywood icon. In People's touching tribute, full of dazzling, intimate photos, he emerges as a man in full a daredevil driver who turned Tom Cruise on to racing, a gourmet food mogul who gave all of his profits, some $250 million, to charity, and a devoted father and husband who was deeply in love with his wife of 50 years, Joanne Woodward. Look back on the remarkable life of a true American original.
