| [Daily Mail, where America gets its news] Screen legend Robert Redford has died at the age of 89. The Oscar-winner died in his sleep on Tuesday at his home in Utah, outside of Provo, The New York Times reported. The announcement of his death was made by Cindi Berger, the chief executive of the publicity firm Rogers & Cowan PMK. Redford was one of the top Hollywood leading men for decades, appearing in blockbusters such as Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid and All the President’s Men. His first big break came in 1963, when he starred on Broadway in Neil Simon’s Barefoot in the Park, which he would later reprise. He often starred alongside many of Hollywood's leading ladies at the time, like Barbra Streisand in The Way We Were in 1973, and Jane Fonda in the 1967 film, Barefoot in the Park. The actor began directing later in life and won an Oscar for Ordinary People in 1980. He founded the nonprofit Sundance Institute in 1981, which became a staple in the arts world for years to come.
