Robert Redford

During his years in school, Robert Redford already had quite a fondness for sports and the arts. With that in mind, it’s no surprise he later studied painting and took acting classes. With that said, Redford eventually started his professional career like his colleagues, acting in stage productions and TV shows.

Beginning with minor parts, Redford eventually landed more and more notable acting credits, with one of his greatest works being in the Broadway production of Barefoot in the Park. Debuting on the big screens with a role in 1962’s War Hunt, Redford has since garnered even more recognition for starring in movies such as All the President’s Men, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, and Out of Africa. While he hasn’t landed any new acting gigs recently, rest assured that the actor is still quite active as a producer behind the scenes.
