In a career that spans 35 years and four continents, Paul Newman has garnered an international reputation for his contributions to linguistics. His works are cited by Africanist and theoretical linguists the world over, and leaders in his field consider him the founder of modern comparative Chadic linguistics. (The Chadic languages include more than 140 individual languages and dialects spoken in northern Nigeria, northern Cameroon and central Chad.) Moreover, with his nearly 800-page magnum opus, The Hausa Language: An Encyclopedic Reference Grammar, he has proved himself to be the world's living authority on Hausa, a major West African language spoken by more than 35 million people.

Beyond his acting work, Newman has been active in social and political causes. In 1982, he founded the food company Newman's Own, whose profits and royalties are used for educational and charitable purposes. Since its inception, over $200 million has been donated to thousands of charities worldwide. Some of the funds raised have gone to fund the Hole in the Wall Camps. Newman ... founded the first Hole in the Wall Camp in 1988 in Ashford, Connecticut. The residential summer camp was created to give children with serious illnesses a memorable, free holiday.

Paul Newman plays hard-working instrumental post-hardcore. While the band's minimal vocal tracks (many songs lack vocals entirely) may land it comparisons to instrumental indie, there's a love of the hard-rocking power of post-hardcore in the band's work that isn't usually a part of instrumental bands' sounds.

At Timely/Atlas, where he and other staff writers were officially titled editors, Newman worked on the teen-humor series Patsy Walker, Hedy Devine and Jeannie under editor-artist Al Jaffee. Under Atlas editor-in-chief Stan Lee, he wrote stories (generally uncredited, as were virtually all those of the staff writers) for such horror/mystery titles as Journey into Mystery and Marvel Tales, as well as for romance titles.

Consistent with his work for liberal causes, Newman publicly supported Ned Lamont's candidacy in the 2006 Connecticut Democratic Primary against Senator Joe Lieberman, and was even rumored as a candidate himself until Lamont emerged as a credible alternative. He has donated to Chris Dodd's presidential campaign.[10]
