Paul Newman: Reluctant Icon

This class is closed.

For almost half a century, Paul Newman epitomized the Hollywood Superstar. His roles in The Long Hot Summer , Hud , Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid , Cool Hand Luke and The Hustler depicted him as the King of Cool, but, in fact, he disdained the spotlight. In 1982, he established a company that has donated over $250 million to numerous organizations, including one he established for children with serious medical conditions. We’ll watch interviews with Newman and take a look behind the scenes at several of his most famous films and learn why he deserves his place in the pantheon of movie stars and philanthropists.

Date: Wednesdays, Nov. 4, 11 & 18
Times: 2–4 p.m.
Location: KU Continuing Education Classroom
1515 St. Andrews Drive
