(DeKalb) – After his Broadway debut in 1959 in the play Tall Story at the age of 22, Robert Redford’s career quickly escalated into the realm of being one of Hollywood’s most revered actors. He went on to star in some of the best-known films in cinematic history. His final film role was in the 2019 film, Avengers: Endgame, before passing away on September 16, 2025, at the age of 89.

The program will also involve a viewing of clips from some of his best-known roles.
This program is free and intended for teens and adults. No registration is required. It will begin at 6:00 p.m. in the lower-level Bilder Family Meeting Room.
