 == Biography ==
-=== Youth ===
+Robert Stanley Haber was born in Los Angeles on 2 February 1929 to Stanley and Dora Haber.  The family came to South Africa when he was a boy and Robert appeared on the stage from 1949 onward.  Blessed with good looks, he was the romantic lead in many plays, notably for [[Brian Brooke]].  He had a season with [[Leonard Schach]]’s [[Cockpit Players]], starred with [[Heather Lloyd-Jones]] in the smash hit ''[[Irma la Douce]]'' (1960) and followed this with [[The World of Suzie Wong]] (1961).  In 1961 he announced that he would be giving up the stage to become a fashion consultant for a Johannesburg apartment store and after that he appeared in only one more play, namely ''[[Sunday in New York]]'' (1962).  Following this he turned to the travel business and for some twenty years organised student tours of Europe.  He also became a more than competent painter and took part in many exhibitions.  Between 1986 and 1992 he took small roles in a number of somewhat indifferent films.  At that time he also made a brief return to the stage and acted in ''[[The Marriage-Go-Round]]'' and ''[[Rough Crossing]]'', both staged at the [[Baxter Theatre]].  He died in 1998.
