Named the greatest actor of the 20th century by the New York Times in 2020, Denzel Washington is one of today’s most well-known and highly respected actors.
Less well-known is his wife of 41 years, Pauletta Washington, an accomplished musician and actress with whom Denzel has shared a life and raised four successful children… and without whom Denzel has said, “I wouldn’t be alive.”
In this episode, we celebrate the love story of Denzel and Pauletta Washington, while also highlighting interesting information about the couple’s individual lives and careers.
What event during his childhood does Denzel credit with helping him avoid a future in the penitentiary? How did Pauletta make North Carolina history in 1970? How did the couple connect… and why do their respective versions of the story differ slightly? 😉 What does Denzel consider to be “the biggest moment” of his life, and what recent project was a family affair, involving all 6 members of the Washington family? Join us as we discuss all this and more!
