RIP Paul Newman

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/26913988/

NEW HAVEN, Connecticut - A spokeswoman for screen legend Paul Newman said Saturday that the actor had died at age 83.

Spokeswoman Marni Tomljanovic said Newman died Friday of cancer. No other details were immediately available.

Newman was nominated for Academy Awards 10 times, winning a regular Oscar in 1987 for "The Color of Money" and two honorary ones. He was equally at home in comedies such as "The Sting" and dramas such as "Hud."


He sometimes teamed with his wife, Joanne Woodward, also an Oscar winner for the 1957 film "Three Faces of Eve."

And he could STILL whip a car around a track with the best of them. An amazing man who accomplished so much, acting, auto racing, his own line of all natural foods, and advocate for the less fortunate.

Newman was always one of my favorite actors and drivers. He will be missed.

Wow, can't believe Butch Cassidy, Fast Eddie Nelson (The Color Of Money) and the voice of Doc Hudson from Cars is dead. RIP Mr. Newman. -Jeff.

On another note, everyone says my dad looks like Paul Newman...a much younger version obviously.
