Résumé
In "The Life and Legacy of Robert Redford: Triumph Amid Tragedy, " author Philip Regol delivers a poignant and intimate biography of one of Hollywood's most enduring icons. From his humble beginnings in Depression-era Santa Monica to his ascent as a golden boy of cinema-starring in classics like Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, All the President's Men, and even a cameo in Avengers: Endgame-Redford's story is one of unparalleled achievement.
As an Academy Award-winning director for Ordinary People, founder of the Sundance Film Festival, and tireless environmental advocate, he reshaped independent film and fought for the planet's future alongside his wife, artist Sibylle Szaggars. Yet, beneath the glamour lies a narrative of profound personal loss. Regol unflinchingly explores the heartbreaks that tested Redford's resilience: the devastating deaths of his infant son Scott to sudden infant death syndrome and his adult son James to liver cancer; the early loss of his mother; his battle with polio as a child; and the end of his 27-year marriage to Lola Van Wagenen.
Through these trials, Redford transformed pain into purpose, channeling grief into activism, family bonds, and a legacy that inspires generations. Blending exclusive insights, heartfelt anecdotes, and a chronological journey from his rebellious youth to his peaceful passing in 2025 at his beloved Sundance home, this book celebrates a man who embodied the American spirit-resilient, visionary, and unyieldingly human.
Perfect for film enthusiasts, biography lovers, and those drawn to stories of perseverance, Regol's work reminds us that true triumph often rises from the ashes of tragedy.
