Paul Newman candidly described the steamy sex life that he shared with his wife of 50 years, Joanne Woodward, in his upcoming posthumous memoir, "Paul Newman: The Extraordinary Life of An Ordinary Man." The memoir was based on interviews with Newman's family, friends, colleagues and the actor himself, who all went on the record with the stipulation that they be "completely honest." In the book, the legendary screen star, who is known for his classic films including "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid," "Cool Hand Luke" and "The Sting," discussed his status as a sex symbol, which he said was all due to Woodward. "Joanne gave birth to a sexual creature," Newman said in an excerpt obtained by People magazine. "We left a trail of lust all over the place.

Newman also opened up about his lack of self-confidence and early failures with women. "I felt like a goodman freak," he said. "Girls thought I was a joke.

However, the Academy Award winner said that all of that changed after meeting Woodward in 1953, when they were both understudies in the original production of William Inge's play "Picnic." At the time, Newman was married to his first wife Jackie Witte, with whom he shared three young children, Scott, Susan and Stephanie.
