Robert Redford

Like many major stars that appeared in the 1950s, Radford’s career began in New York City, where actors could find jobs on stage and television. When Robert Redford made his debut in the Twilight Zone back 1962, he probably only wished for the episode to succeed. Things worked out for him and his career since then has been paved with many film awards, including an Academy Award for Lifetime Achievement in 2002.

Robert was also given credit for being among the “Most Influential People in the World” according to Time. His move from TV to big screen projects proved his versatility. Robert also dabbled in directing, having harbored ambitions to work both in front and behind the camera. The net worth he earned throughout the years allowed the actor to purchase an entire jest ski area in Provo, Utah. The Old Man & the Gun was his final film before retirement.
