On top of being one of the most iconic actors of all time, Robert Redford is also an avowed philanthropist, environmental activist and filmmaker — and he’s passed on his passion for film to his family.
He and his first wife, Lola Van Wagenen, had four children together: Scott, Shauna, James and Amy Redford. Scott died from sudden infant death syndrome at only 2 months old.
Their younger son, James, died of cancer in October 2020. After news of James’ death was announced, The Redford Center’s executive director, Jill Tidman, issued a statement that touched on his remarkable life.
“As a filmmaker, writer and activist, Jamie was intentional and inspirational,” Tidman said. “As a father, husband, brother, son and a friend to so many — he was a devout supporter, always full of hope. He will be greatly and intensely missed.”
Redford has left his indelible mark on each family member, many of whom have pursued careers as filmmakers and artists. His son James produced and directed a number of films and documentaries, and his daughters Amy and Shauna both work as filmmakers and artists. Several of his grandchildren are also beginning to follow in his footsteps.
