He did a lot of good for a lot of people.
For that, he should be commended !!
However,I just did a quick search on Newman and found that he served honorably during WWII,so I just might have to add his name to the other two.
And his sesame and ginger salad dressing is to die for
Yep, and it’s covered in the article.
Newman was pretty liberal, however unlike most he actually did do a great deal to help many people.
He was a great actor, really good race car driver and car owner.
I have a lot of respect for him.
Back then, being liberal, wasn’t necessarily being anti-American.

I use his Salsa, it’s great. I will look for other products of his to support his foundation.
Thanks for your post.
shame on me. i have avoided purchasing his product b/c i figured the “charities” would support liberal garbage.
Mark Levin read a list of famous actors who served in World War II and a brief description of their service. It took him a long time to read the list. All were very well known to anybody who watched movies or TV during the 1960’s and 1970’s. Paul Newman was one of many.
Support Free Republic, Folks!
This was back about 1980 and Paul Newman, who was involved in auto racing at the time, had an office devoted to this pursuit on a lower floor. He and his wife Joan & family lived in Westport.
The parking garage for the building was on the bottom level.
My wife was leaving work one day taking the elevator (alone) down to the garage when the elevator stopped on the fourth floor.
Paul Newman steps in to the elevator (unaccompanied). Also going to the parking level.
This was probably the first time my wife, in her life, was rendered speechless. ;)
Yum!
Newman was a democrat before they became the corrupt Marxist , anti-American traitors they are today .
Democrats back then had flawed ideas , but they were not all bad people.
Heh heh, that would be a shocker and goes to show he was a down to earth person.
Actors that famous now would more than likely have an armed security guy with them, of course times have changed now too.
Unlike most Liberals he was willing to put his own money where his mouth was.
That’s kind of what I suspected, but I posted this for everyone’s information. I don’t know anything about any of them. Seems like a great number of his recipient organizations are in CT, MA, and primarily northern states.
