Editing Muhammad Ali (section)

=== Art ===
Ali was also an amateur artist and made dozens of drawings and paintings in the 1970s. In 1977, Rodney Hilton Brown, who owned an art gallery in NYC, asked Ali if he was interested in painting. Ali took him up on the offer and produced several paintings for him to sell. Brown is the author of ''Muhammad Ali: The Untold Story: Painter, Poet and Prophet''.<ref>{{Cite news|title=Art by Muhammad Ali, boxing icon, sells for close to $1 million in New York auction|language=en-US|newspaper=Washington Post|url=https://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/2021/10/06/muhammad-ali-art-auction-sells-boxing/|access-date=October 7, 2021|issn=0190-8286|archive-date=November 28, 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211128214923/https://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/2021/10/06/muhammad-ali-art-auction-sells-boxing/|url-status=live}}</ref> In October 2021, 26 of his drawings and arts were placed on auction and sold for close to US$1 Million.<ref>{{Cite news|last=Villa|first=Angelica|date=October 6, 2021|title=Muhammad Ali's Little-Known Art Becomes a Hit at Auction|url=https://www.artnews.com/art-news/market/muhammad-ali-bonhams-sale-1234605878/|access-date=October 7, 2021|website=ARTnews.com|language=en-US|archive-date=October 6, 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211006222506/https://www.artnews.com/art-news/market/muhammad-ali-bonhams-sale-1234605878/|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news|last=Calfas|first=Jennifer|date=October 6, 2021|title=Boxing Legend Muhammad Ali's Art Sells for Nearly $1 Million in Auction|language=en-US|work=[[The Wall Street Journal]]|url=https://www.wsj.com/articles/boxing-legend-muhammad-alis-art-sells-for-nearly-1-million-in-auction-11633532646|access-date=October 7, 2021|issn=0099-9660|archive-date=October 7, 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211007031641/https://www.wsj.com/articles/boxing-legend-muhammad-alis-art-sells-for-nearly-1-million-in-auction-11633532646|url-status=live}}</ref>
