The Beginning of Redford’s Acting Journey
In his early 20s, Redford landed his first Broadway role. Despite early theater success, familial responsibilities prompted a transition to television, allowing him to spend evenings at home with his wife and two children.

Transitioning to television proved advantageous for Redford, as he was featured on major shows like The Twilight Zone and Perry Mason. Although still distant from fame, this move set the stage for his escalating career.
