Photograph signed: "Paul Newman". B/w, 10x8 overall, image 9¼x6¼ (one surface). Publicity still from the 1981 film, Fort Apache, the Bronx, in which Newman starred as Murphy and Danny Aiello (also pictured) co-starred as Morgan. ©1980, Time-Life Productions. Captioned at lower margin: "Veteran cop PAUL NEWMAN struggles with DANNY AIELLO, a fellow officer whose lawless behavior precipitates a dangerous crisis, in a powerful drama of an embattled police precinct." In the year this film was released, Newman also starred in Absence of Malice, which earned him an Oscar nomination for Best Actor in a Leading Role. Nominated for eight Academy Awards for Best Actor, Newman (1925-2008, born in Shaker Heights, Ohio) won the 1987 Oscar for portraying Fast Eddie Felson in The Color of Money, the same character he played in The Hustler 25 years earlier (also Oscar nominated). His other nominated roles were Brick Pollitt in Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, Hud Bannon in Hud, Lucas "Cool Hand" (Luke) Jackson in Cool Hand Luke, Michael Colin Gallagher in Absence of Malice, Frank Galvin in The Verdict and Donald "Sully" Sullivan in Nobody's Fool. He was nominated for a ninth Oscar, the 2003 Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor, for portraying John Rooney in Road to Perdition. Minor surface creases (not evident head-on).
