Robert Archibald Shaw (9 August 1927 – 28 August 1978) was an English stage and film actor and writer. He is most remembered for his performances in The Sting, From Russia with Love, A Man for all Seasons and as Quint in Jaws. Robert Shaw was born on King Street, in Westhoughton, Lancashire, England, in 1927, to Thomas (a physician) and Doreen Shaw. He had three sisters and one brother. When he was seven, the family moved to Stromness, Orkney, Scotland and when he was 12 his father committed suicide by swallowing a lethal dose of opium. He apparently had been struggling with alcohol for a number of years. The family then moved to Cornwall, where he went to school in Truro. Shaw was a teacher in Saltburn, Yorkshire for a brief period, then attended the Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts in London.
Shaw was married three times and had ten children: Jennifer Bourke (1952-1963) by whom he had four daughters; Mary Ure (1963-1975, until her death as a result of accidental overdose), with whom he had two sons and two daughters; and Virginia Jansen (1976-1978), two sons, one, he adopted. One of his sons by Mary Ure, Ian Shaw, is also an actor and bares a striking similarity to his father. For the last seven years of his life he lived at Drimbawn House, in the village of Tourmakeady, County Mayo in Ireland.
Shaw died of a heart attack in Ireland while filming Avalanche Express, on August 28, 1978. He was driving home with his wife, Virginia, and his youngest son, Thomas (then twenty months old), after golfing with friends during a break in filming. After feeling chest pains, he stopped the car and told Virginia he would get out and walk them off. After taking four or five steps he collapsed by the side of the road and was pronounced dead by the paramedic team which arrived fifteen minutes later. He was cremated and his ashes scattered near his home in Ireland. A stone memorial to him was unveiled there in his honor in August 2008.
