Hudson, a cultural icon
Born Ernest Lee Hudson in Benton Harbor on December 17, 1945, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in American history. Hudson's not just a great actor, he's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business man. At this point in his career, there seems to be little Ernie hasn't done.
