Sidney Poitier passed away on 01/06/2022, he was 94 years old. I loved Sidney Poitier he was a great actor and always seemed so distinguished to me. He was the teacher in To Sir with Love which was one of my favorite movies.
He was the first African American and Bahamian actor to win the award an Academy Award for best Actor. He one the BAFTA award for the movie The Defiant Ones. In 1964, he won the Academy Award and the Golden Globe Award for Best Actor for Lilies of the Field (1963), he also won a Grammy Award for Best Spoken Word Album.
He had so many nominations and acclaims I would not do it justice trying to type them all.
RIP.
Sorry I am not the best writer but I loved Sidney Poitier so I wanted to post about him
