Robert Redford (Actor) .. Paul Bratter
Born: August 18, 1936 in Santa Monica, California
Best Known For: The Sundance Kid.
Early-life: Charles Robert Redford Jr was born on August 18, 1936, in Santa Monica, California. His father was a milkman who later became an accountant. His mother, Martha, died a year after he graduated from high school. He has a younger half-brother. Always a rebel, Redford lost his baseball scholarship at the University of Colorado following a drunken incident. He later studied art at Brooklyn's Pratt Institute and spent time painting in Europe before enrolling at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts in New York.
Career: Redford appeared on stage before making his TV debut in a 1960 episode of Maverick. More small-screen roles followed, and he was shortlisted to play Dr Kildare, but lost out to Richard Chamberlain. Movies such as The Chase and Barefoot in the Park followed, but it was Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid that turned him into a major star in 1969. Films since include The Candidate, The Sting, All the President's Men, Out of Africa and Spy Game. He's also an accomplished director, winning an Oscar in 1981 for Ordinary People, and assembling a dream cast for Lions for Lambs.
Quote: "All my life I've been dogged by guilt because I feel there is this difference between the way I look and the way I feel inside."
Trivia: Redford formed the Sundance Institute and film festival to help support independent filmmakers.
Jane Fonda (Actor) .. Corie Bratter
Born: December 21, 1937 in New York
Best Known For: Her exercise videos.
Early-life: Born Lady Jayne Seymour Fonda on December 21, 1937, in New York. Her parents were actor Henry Fonda and socialite Frances Seymour Brokaw, who committed suicide when her daughter was 12. Jane's younger brother, Peter, is also an actor. Jane showed little interest in the profession, despite family friend and director Joshua Logan persuading her to appear alongside her father in a stage production of The Country Girl in the 1950s. Instead, she concentrated on art and dabbled in modelling before studying drama with Lee Strasberg at the Actors Studio.
Career: Fonda's movie debut came in 1960's Tall Story. By the end of the decade she was a major star thanks to such films as Cat Ballou, Barefoot in the Park and Barbarella. She later won Oscars for Klute and Coming Home. Other memorable movies are On Golden Pond, Nine to Five, The Electric Horseman and California Suite. In 1982 she launched her first exercise video, and became a fitness guru to millions. Fonda announced her retirement from acting in 1990, but returned to the big screen in 2005 in Monster-in-Law. Her recent work has included roles in The Newsroom, The Butler and This is Where I Leave You.
Quote: "People think actresses find public speaking easy, and it's not easy at all; we're used to hiding behind masks."
Trivia: In 2005, she published her autobiography, My Life So Far. Her second memoir, Prime Time, arrived in 2011.
