“Robert Redford: The golden icon of Hollywood who redefined storytelling, both on-screen and behind the lens, with timeless charm and unparalleled vision.”
Who could forget Robert Redford’s incredible charisma in classics like Barefoot in the Park, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, and The Way We Were? In the ’60s and ’70s, Redford was the epitome of charm and good looks. Now 87, he is a true legend.
Born Charles Robert Redford Jr. in Santa Monica, California, he began as a high school rebel before developing a passion for art and traveling in Europe. Returning to the U.S., he studied art in New York and later acting at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts in the late ’50s. Over six decades, Redford built a remarkable film career with over fifty movies, including Butch Cassidy and the Kid (with Paul Newman), The Horse Whisperer (with Scarlett Johansson), and The Great Gatsby (with Mia Farrow and Sam Waterston).
In August 2018, Redford announced his retirement from acting. As he celebrates his birthday, we look back at 15 iconic moments of his career.
