Godfrey, Lionel. PAUL NEWMAN: SUPERSTAR. A Critical Biography. New York: St. Martin's Press, [1978]
Illustrated. Bibliography. Filmography. Index. "Since his screen career began and also nearly ended with the fiasco "The Silver Chalice" in 1954, Paul Newman has won the acclaim of millions of fans and critics the world over. But even to his most casual admirers, Newman's career is as enigmatic as it is brilliant. To his fans, he is the blue-eyed, impossibly handsome anti-hero of "Cool Hand Luke" and "Butch Cassidy." To perceptive students of film, he is that rare phenomenon - an actor of exceptional versatility who has defied the trap of typecasting by continually shrugging off stereotypes and extending his range; an actor who began by suffering from emotional reticence and became renowned for the passionate feeling of his performances; a star who is known as a great sex-symbol but yet has appeared without a woman in many of his most famous roles. Paul Newman has also turned his hand to directing. "Rachel, Rachel," starring Joanne Woodward, his wife of twenty years, established the Newmans as one of the most famous husband-and-wife teams in pictures. PAUL NEWMAN SUPERSTAR explores the extraordinary careers and the shared life of Paul and Joanne, but above all Lionel Godfrey provides us with an in-depth, rare and incisive look at Paul Newman himself - the celebrity and the extremely private man, the beer-drinking, fast-driving, hard-living sex symbol, and the uncomplicated family man whose marriage has endured through two decades of Hollywood stress and slander. It is the story of one of the rarest acting talents of our time..." ISBN 0-312-59819-X.. First American edition. 8vo (5 3/4" x 8 1/2"). 208 pages. Red paper-covered boards, gilt spine lettering (hardcover binding).

Newman, Paul: SHAMELESS EXPLOITATION IN THE PURSUIT OF THE COMMON GOOD, New York Doubleday Publishing 2003
ISBN: 0-385-50802-6 As New Condition
ABOUT THE BOOK Shameless Exploitation in the Pursuit of the Common Good FROM THE PUBLISHER In 1978, Paul Newman and A. E. Hotchner decided that rather than just distribute Paul's own salad dressing at Christmas to neighbors, they would offer it to a few local stores. Freewheeling, irreverent entrepreneurs, they conceived of their venture as a great way to poke fun at the mundane method of traditional marketing. Much to their surprise, the dressing was enthusiastically received. What had started as a lark quickly escalated into a full-fledged business, the first company to place all-natural foods in supermarkets. From salad dressing to spaghetti sauce, to popcorn and lemonade, Newman's Own became a major player in the food business. The company's profits were originally donated to medical research, education, and the environment, and eventually went to the creation of the eight Hole in the Wall Gang camps for children with serious illnesses. In these pages Newman and Hotchner recount the picaresque saga of their own nonmanagement adventure. In alternating voices, playing off one another in classic "Odd Couple" style, they describe how they systematically disregarded the advice of experts and relied instead on instinct, imagination, and mostly luck. They write about how they hurdled obstacle after obstacle, share their hilarious misadventures, and reveal their offbeat solutions to conventional problems. Even their approach to charity is decidedly different: every year they give away all the company's profits, empty the coffers, and start over again. The results of this amazing generosity are brought to life in heartwarming stories about the children at their camps. With rare glimpses into their zany style and their compassion for those less fortunate, Newman and Hotchner have written the perfect nonmanagement book, at once playful, informative, and inspirational. FROM THE CRITICS The New York Times In Shameless Exploitation, the actor Paul Newman and the writer A. E. Hotchner provide a zany step-by-step account of how they did something unheard of. They put a salad dressing you'd make yourself -- no chemical agents, just natural ingredients -- on supermarket shelves. No focus groups, no advertising, no preservatives. Yet the upstart brand Newman's Own made nearly1 million in profits that first year, propelling the self-described ''two bumbling amateurs'' to market all-natural pasta sauces, popcorn and lemonade. - Carol Peace Robins The Washington Post Two guys in a basement invented a decent salad dressing and over the past 20 years they've given away150 million to make the world conform just a little more to their sunny vision. They're extraordinarily cool dudes. —Carolyn See Publishers Weekly One of the most unusual philanthropic enterprises of the 20th century almost never happened: Newman's Own was the name intended for a restaurant the movie star wanted to open near his home in Westport, Conn. But the idea never went anywhere, freeing up Newman to start a business in the early 1980s with his friend Hotchner, a bestselling author (Papa Hemingway), selling a salad dressing made from Newman's personal recipe. The rest is history. As this breezy memoir recalls, the two broke every rule for launching a new food business, ignoring the failure rate for celebrity-themed products, demanding all-natural ingredients and bypassing nearly every aspect of market research (although they did hold one taste test at the home of local caterer Martha Stewart). Despite all this, they managed to pull in nearly1 million in profits their first year, all earmarked for charity, and have since launched many more products and donated nearly140 million. This part of the story doesn't really have a lot of meat to it, but it is an entertaining string of anecdotes, song parodies and wacky customer letters. <P> The book's second half becomes more somber as it shifts focus to the Hole in the Wall Gang, the organization they created to build and run camps for children with serious illnesses.
