Sidney Poitier - Mini Bio

Mr. Sidney Poitier

When I was a teenager and was able to watch our black and white television, I first say Mr. Poitier in " Raisin in the Sun". The performance of him playing a hard working husband making a bad decision about investing money gave me an understanding of being careful who you give your money too.

I got to watch all of Mr. Poitier movies on channel 17, own by Ted Turner.  I particularly
  like the movie "Guess who's coming to Dinner", which gave me some understanding about  interracial relationships. This movie was remade with comedian Bernie Mac and Ashton Cushon.

On April 13, 1964 Mr. Poitier becomes the first black actor to win the coveted "best actor" for his role in "Lilies of the Field".

I enjoyed watching all of Mr. Poitier movies and movies he directed.
