Questions 42 – 44 are based on the following text.
Paul Leonard Newman was born on January 26, 1925 in Cleveland, Ohio. He grew up in Shaker
Heights, Ohio, with his older brother Arthur and his parents, Arthur and Teresa. His father owned
a sporting-goods store and his mother was a homemaker who loved the theatre. He got his first
taste of acting while doing school plays, but it was not his first love at the time.
Newman turned to acting after getting kicked off the football team in college. He made his
Broadway debut in William Inge’s Pulitzer Prize-winning comedy Picnic in 1953 and began
doing television and films, eventually becoming known as one of the finest actors of his time. He
created a food company, Newman's Own, that donates all proceeds to charity. Newman died of
cancer on September 26, 2008.
Even though Newman passed away in 2008, he is a memorable actor who also deserves to be
recognized for his amazing entrepreneurship. According to Business Insider, Newman launched
his line of food products, Newman’s Own, in 1982. What first started out as just selling salad
dressing quickly expanded into selling many items, including popcorn, pasta sauce, lemonade,
and salsa.
Newman’s first year of business had profits that exceeded $300,000. In 2008 and 2011,
respectively, Newman’s Own also introduced frozen pizza and skillet meals, writes Newman’s
Own Foundation. There are now over 100 product varieties sold throughout the U.S. and
abroad. Newman’s profits go to a great cause, too. According to Newman’s Own Foundation,
the company donates 100 percent of its profits and royalties to charities. In 2012, the
organization had given $380 million in contributions to nonprofits worldwide.
