Born in Miami in 1927 and raised in The Bahamas, Sidney Poitier went from a difficult early life and odd jobs in New York to become one of the most important actors in film history. He broke barriers throughout the 1950s and 1960s, became the first Black man to win the Academy Award for Best Actor for Lilies of the Field, later directed major films, served as Bahamian ambassador to Japan, and received both an Honorary Academy Award and the Presidential Medal of Freedom. This episode follows Poitier's journey from Cat Island to Hollywood legend, tracing the dates, places, films, and turning points that made him a true pioneer.
