Sidney Poitier VS Clint Eastwood – Actor
Sidney Poitier – BEVERLY HILLS, $4.5 Million
What does Sidney Poitier and Clint Eastwood have in common? They both started their acting careers in the ’50s, and since then, they have had a long-running passion for the film industry. They are both award-winning actors, film directors, and public servants, with Poitier serving as former Bahamian ambassador to Japan. Poitier also received acclaim for his performances in A Patch of Blue and A Raisin in the Sun. Now 93 years old, he is named the oldest living and earliest surviving Academy Award winner for Best Actor.
In the mid-’90s, he and his wife, Joanna, decided to list their Beverly Hills home on the market for $4.5 million, which is probably more expensive now when calculated via today’s home finance. The property was their home for 19 years, and all their six children most likely grew up there.
