Denzel Washington

Sunday July 5, 2009
For thirty years, actor Denzel Washington has been mastering the art of acting. Clearly, he has succeeded: he is the winner of two Oscars and numerous other awards. Although he has earned the title of "movie star," one is unlikely to read stories about Washington, a family man who enjoys his privacy, in tabloid magazines. However, you might catch a glimpse of him supporting one of his favorite causes—the Boys and Girls Clubs of America.
