Redford's Broadway debut was in a small role in Tall Story, followed by parts in the tallest tree and Sunday in New York. His biggest Broadway success was as the stuffy newlywed husband, Elizabeth Ashley in Neil Simon's Barefoot in the Park.
He also played in the war film A Bridge Too Far, 1977, and baseball movie The Natural to the 1984th Redford continued his involvement in mainstream Hollywood films, but the projects were fewer. Redford had long had ambitions to work on both sides of the lens. As early as 1969, Redford had served as executive producer for Downhill Racer.
