ROBERT STACK
Hollywood's
Once tabbed a glamour boy and perennial bacheJbr, he's now
r ' gap lpf-
rW- -' -2?
Ex-heir to a fortune, talented Robert Stack
By PEER J. OPPENHEIMER
To millions OP television fans, 41-year-old
Robert Stack is known as Eliot Ness,
tough, ruthless Federal agent on the highly
successful "The Untouchables" series.
To the public in general and most of his
acquaintances, Bob is thought of as the
scion of a prominent California family and
heir to a fortune.
Actually, neither description fits.
In a way, Bob's home reflects his person
ality more than any description of him.
It's a spacious, rambling Hawaiian-modern
with indoor tropical plants, which creates
a distinct feeling of luxury and outdoor liv
ing, and reveals Bob's love of activity. It
has a tennis court on one side and a tiled
swimming pool between the house wings.
The estate is located in the most fashion
able section of Bel Ait- and is valued at ap
proximately $200,000. Bob hopes that his
successful TV series, of which he owns a
considerable part, will help pay off the
mortgage as well as give him the financial

has begun lo reap his own financial rewards.
security the public has been led to believe
he has always enjoyed.
These false notions date back to his first
break in movies when he was 20 and won
the distinction of giving Deanna Durbin her
fust screen kiss.
At that time, nothing was more important
to a star than glamour and nothing more
glamorous than wealth, an old family, and
a good education. Bob had all except that
the wealth had vanished in the '29 crash.
Bob's parents were separated when he
was a year old, and his mother, who had
operatic ambitions, took him to Europe
while his brother Jim remained in the
United States with his father.
"I learned to speak French and Italian
before English," Bob recalls, "and when I
came home six years later I had to talk to
my brother through an interpreter." His
parents remarried at that time, but his
father lived only another year.
Today, Bob is not only one of the best
looking and most athletic, but also one
of the manliest, actors in Hollywood. "My
mother realized the danger of raising me
too softly, without the firm hand of my
"Unstoppable"
happily married and famous in the
father, and made sure I had plenty of male
associations," he says.
After his break into movies, Bob's per
sonal publicity agent named him Holly
wood's "most eligible young bachelor."
Girls swarmed to him and got nowhere.
For Bob was European in at least one re
spect: he was in no rush to marry. He be
came one of the staunchest bachelors in
town until five years ago, when he married
starlet Rosemarie Bowe, daughter of a
"well-to-do contractor.
Rosemarie who temporarily gave up her
career to have two children, Elizabeth, now
three, and Charles, two proved to be the
perfect counterpart of Bob. She loves the
same kind of life Bob does active yet re
laxed, with great emphasis on outdoor ac
tivities, including boating, riding, and Bob's
favorite pastime, shooting.
Unlike many Hollywood bachelors who
delay marriage, establishing a home made
little change in Bob's habits. Never
the type to roam from one night club to
another, Bob preferred home life. Often
Rosemarie, Bob, and his mother would have
dinner together at his house and entertain
themselves by listening to music or watch
ing television. In fact, he proposed after one
of these dinners although on that occasion
his mother arranged to be away!
Even today, about the only "nights out"
Bob and Rosemarie take are early-morning
snacks after he finishes work on "The Un
touchables." Because many of the scenes
are shot at night, Bob doesn't get through
until 2 a.m. Frequently, Rosemarie picks
him up at the studio, and they drive to
Malibu Beach, where Bob unwinds from
work over a sandwich and a drink.
Bob tries to reserve his free morning
hours and weekends to play with Elizabeth
and Charles. For a man who was a bachelor
for so many years, he shows an unusual
amount of patience with them as when he
insists the children's noise doesn't bother
him, as long as they play happily.
"If they start whining," he says, "they
hear from me!"
Rosemarie does as much as possible to
make Bob's life easier. She answers the
phone and keeps away minor annoyances.
"She can tell my mood as soon as I walk
in the door," Bob explains. "She'll start the
shower for me, and before I know it, I'm
feeling better."
At this point, Bob's demanding schedule
rules their lives. They don't mind because
they are building for the future. "But I
wouldn't want things to be this hectic all
my life," Bob told me. "Working almost
seven days and nights a week isn't fun."
Bob's career, however, has aways been
role of rough, lough Eliot Ness
hectic. After his debut opposite Deanna
Durbin, he fought the label of "glamour
boy" by seeking out widely diverse parts.
Sometimes his career hit a slump, but de
termination paid off with such roles as the
psychotic drunk in "Written on the Wind"
and an Academy Award nomination.
"I thought that would be the end of my
'type casting,' " he recalls. "Instead, I was
offered a mess of crazy drunk roles!"
Bob's success hasn't gone to his head, and
his concern for others was never more
evident than the night he lost the Academy
Award contest to Anthony Quinn. Barely
ten minutes after the decision had been an
nounced, William Schiffren, Bob's agent
who was still glued to his TV set got a
call. "I thought you were at the Academy
Awards," Schiffren said when he heard
Bob's voice.
"I am in the lobby," Bob came back. "I
just wanted to tell you not to take it too
hard that I didn't win."
With his career and outdoor interests to
keep him busy, Bob has begun still another
project. He has organized his own company,
Langford Productions, which will create
both television and motion pictures. "This
will give me something to do between
shows," explains Bob, who on the movie
TV scene has become something of "The
Unstoppable."
Bob and Rosemarie agree on firm bill loving
care for children, Elizabeth and Charles.
