After serving three years in the U.S. Navy, he attended Rutgers University in New Brunswick, where, at his father's wise urging, he majored in Business and Finance - and it was lucky for him that he did. Upon leaving Hollywood in 1967, he formed a real estate acquisition partnership, bought a ranch in Carmel Valley, California, and other trophy properties throughout the West, raised thoroughbred horses and formed Transjet, the first jet-oriented fixed base operation in the Monterey, California, area. Returning to his writing skills - he then wrote The History of the Union Pacific Railroad in Cheyenne, a large coffee-table book that became the most successful and highly praised rail photo book ever published.
Now officially retired but still hard at work, Darwin continues with his writings, being currently involved with the completion of his second memoir, Fragments, which is principally concerned with memorable episodes from his non-Hollywood years. Yuri - the third volume in Darwin's trilogy - is an historically accurate blockbuster accounting of his father's five-year-long flight out of the Ukraine and around the world after the assassination of his parents and younger sister by Bolshevik forces - after their being branded as aristocrats - at the beginning of the Bolshevik Revolution in October 1917.
At the time of this writing Robert Darwin is 92 years of age; he still boasts 20/20 vision, has all of his marbles in place and is in excellent health - a sign, as he puts it, of his exceptional genes. This fortuitous inheritance allows him the opportunity to continue a productive daily routine and the ability to sustain a robust propensity for humor and the desire to partake in all of the positive things that life has to offer.показать меньше
