Bob directed "Calculated Risk" on Broadway in 1962. It turned out to be his last work in the entertainment business. Not a bad way to go out, directing a play on Broadway after a rather humble start as a stagehand some 40 years prior.
I just noticed that John Beal is a cast member. Mr. Beal's first movie was Another Language (1933), playing Bob's younger brother. He also appeared twice on Robert Montgomery Presents.
Bob was 58 at this time. From this brief bio in the flyer, you could surmise he was not in retirement mode, just seeking other interests.
