Paul Newman | Food And Condiments

A legend in Hollywood history, Paul Newman was an Academy Award-winning actor, acclaimed director, and a well-known philanthropist who helped establish the male lead in motion pictures from the mid-1950s through the 21st century. His charisma, intellect, and his intensity earned a wide range of roles. Newman had at least 65 starring credit roles throughout his career and had a staggering $80 million to his name.

Newman’s fans in the 70s and 80s remember him for his incredible movies, but fans today are more likely to identify the late actor with his variety of food and condiments. The star created Newman’s Own in the early ’80s, initially selling salad dressing. More than 20 years later, the business grew to sell everything from popcorn to pizza. Newman made millions out of it and contributed all of the after-tax royalties to charity, bringing the total to a whopping $460 million.
