CNN reported he was 83 and died of cancer. I haven’t even looked much further for specifics because it’s just sad. My impression of the man was that he was a good human being, full of integrity and loyalty and passion. And a pretty good actor too. I am sorry to see that light extinguished.

Sorry to hear this news.
I was fortunate enough to spend a day with Newman as his bodyguard/assistant some years ago when I worked at CNN in Atlanta. Newman was in town to participate in a car race, and stopped in to CNN to talk about anti-nukes. I got in a heated argument with him too. But between his passion for certain world issues, his tremendous generosity and charitable donations, his long-lasting devotion to his wife, and of course, his acting abilities, he really left a positive impression on the world.
