Paul Newman: A Life

From countless Hollywood films to charitable popcorn, there's a reason Paul Newman is regarded as a legend. "Paul Newman: A Life" is a biography of this legendary individual who for the better part of a century captivated audiences around the world. Lawrence Quirk tells the mans story which isn't always as glorious as Hollywood would make it out to be and tells a story of a man who sought acceptance from his father and was a man like any other. "Paul Newman" presents a very human view of the film icon, a top pick for biography collections with a focus on the silver screen.

A detailed bio of Paul Newman and his movies. I would have liked to have known more about his life before he got into the movies more. Great book if you are a fan of his movies and of him. Hila

Quirk, the author of more than 20 film-star biographies, reveals a Newman that might be unfamiliar to his adoring fans. Book reveals something of Newman's dark side and takes a sharp look at his acting as well. Hard-hitting and not written for members of Newman's cult following. A must-have for the Newman completist.
