Her father rose to fame during the 1960s, and had a prolific career filled with film hits from the ‘60s up to the early-2010s. Shauna Redford is not the only child of her parents.

The Academy Award winner and the American historian tied the knot in 1958 and shortly after, they welcomed their eldest son, Scott, in September 1959. Tragically, the couple’s beloved child died in infancy just two months after his birth in November.

Robert and Lola didn’t give up on becoming parents, however, as their second child, Shauna, arrived 1960, followed by their son James in 1962. They later completed their family with the birth of their youngest daughter, Amy, in 1970. For the next 15 years, the Way We Were star and the Clio Visualizing History, Inc. cofounder raised their three kiddos together. However, they ultimately called it quits in 1985.

Despite the divorce, Shauna Redford’s parents, Robert and Lola watched their children follow in their accomplished footsteps as they grew up.

While Robert Redford’s daughter, Shauna stayed away from media attention unlike the father, many eyes turned towards the blonde beauty during her college days, when she became involved in a murder investigation.

The victim was her boyfriend at college, a man named Sid Wells whom she was classmates with at the University of Colorado. The two had been together for three years until in 1983 he was discovered dead, shot in the head at his home, a condominium near the university by his brother, who became a murder suspect for some time. The case remains unresolved.

Robert Redford’s daughter Shauna Redford was grief-stricken for a long period, and couldn’t function properly, including studying, and ultimately ended up dropping out of college.

She and her father appeared during Wells’s funeral. Shauna Redford was eventually able to move on and focus on her painting career. She’s had a bit of success, though the media doesn’t track her actions so much compared to her father. She continues to appear publicly but attention on her lessened, especially after her father retired.

While the blonde beauty didn’t follow in her dad’s Hollywood footsteps, she did pave a prosperous career as a painter.

Today, the popular actor’s daughter, Shauna Redford later met and started a relationship with Eric Schlosser, who is an author, professor, and producer. Shauna Redford’s husband Eric Schlosser is known for his work on the book “Fast Food Nation”. They married in 1985 and they have two children together. The family often posts a few photos online, though she has remained out of the spotlight. She remains close to both her parents, even as they all live very different lives. To avoid any attention, she doesn’t have any public online accounts.
