One of a few stars who kept his integrity amidst the fame. I read an anecdote recently, perhaps in Readers Digest. A woman walked into a small town ice cream store, perhaps in Connecticut, to get an ice cream cone. As she waited for the cone, she noticed Newman sitting at a table. She got all flustered, trying to decide whether to tell him how much she liked his movies, then decided to just let him enjoy a little privacy. As she started out the door, she realized that she didn't have her ice cream cone. Puzzled, she turned back and looked for it at the counter. Newman spoke up with a smile. "It's in your purse."
