BodyRobert Redford, who died Sept. 16 at 89, paid a visit to the Dartmouth campus during the height of his stardom, where he was honored by the Dartmouth Film Society at a ceremony in Spaulding Auditorium. One of the reasons was because of my father’s dream that I go to Dartmouth,” Redford joked during the tribute, according to the Dartmouth Alumni Magazine. Redford attended the University of Colorado but didn’t graduate, and later studied art for a time at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris, according to The New York Times. His self-deprecation aside, Redford had a major impact, says Mary Desjardins, professor emeritus in the Department of Film and Media Studies.
