On the occasion of Róbert's 100th birthday on August 16, the Theatre Museum received a very nice visit from Róbert's immediate family. Stella Guðmundsdóttir, Róbert's widow, Alma Ch. Róbertsdóttir and Agla Bj. Róbertsdóttir his daughters and their husbands, Þorlákur Hermannsson and Stefán Kristjánsson visited the library. Kolbrún Halldórsdóttir, the former chairman of the board of the Theatre Museum also came.
