The Life of An Ordinary Man
The Autobiography of Harold Cunningham
By Paul Newman
The Life of An Ordinary Man – To Jake…. my Grandson... I ‘m writing this journal Jake, so that you will have somewhat of a short history of your Grandpa Harold ‘s life. I may not be here to answer your questions if you have any by the time you get old enough to inquire about the people, places, and things that may become important to you.
So here we go……
I first saw you when you were approximately one hour old. You had not even been weighed yet. I fell in love with you right that minute. I had my old baseball cap on; and I bent my head over so that the tip of the bill touched your forehead. From that time on you and I have always played a game with my cap. I‘m sure that bonded us together forever.
