Paul Newman 1925 – 2008
Reports were a flutter when Paul Newman finished chemotherapy treatment for cancer in August. It was rumored that he had only weeks to live.
In June this year, a neighbor and business partner said the actor told him about the disease the previous year.
In May, Newman pulled out of directing John Steinbeck’s Of Mice and Men for unspecified health reasons.
Newman retired from acting in 2006 after a 50-year career. Newman was nominated for 10 Oscars and in 1986 won best actor for his role in The Color Of Money.
Paul Newman was one of the sexiest and most desirable men in Hollywood, as far as I’m concerned – even into his 80’s. So sad that he’s gone.
Rest in Peace Paul and thanks for sharing your life and talent with so many.

it’s hard not to admire Paul Newman for putting his money to work in such productive ways, such as his Newman’s Own line–high quality stuff and the proceeds go to good causes… very smart.
