Actors Edward Norton and Sidney Poitier on this edition of Fresh Air as they both discuss their careers. Norton is co-starring in the film The Score along with Robert DeNiro and Marlon Brando. His first major role was in the 1996 film Primal Fear as a quiet, stuttering altar boy accused of a brutal murder. He was nominated for an Academy Award for his portrayal. Norton went on to roles in Woody Allen's Everyone Says I Love You, The People vs. Larry Flint, and Fight Club. He was nominated for an Academy Award again for his role in American History X. Poitier is the leading African-American actor of his generation. He was the first, and so far the only, African-American to win the Academy Award for best actor, which he did in 1963 for his performance in Lilies of the Field. His other films include The Defiant Ones, A Patch of Blue, Guess Who's Coming to Dinner, and To Sir, With Love. His autobiography is The Measure of a Man: A Spiritual Autobiography.
