Raised in Atlanta, Robert first tasted the performer's life as a teenaged bassist for RuPaul, simultaneously studying acting at Northside School of the Performing Arts. After a brief sojourn in Athens, Ga., he moved to New York City, where he soon found work as bassman in globetrotting garage rockers The Fleshtones. He returned to acting in the early 90s, landing the role of Buddy Holly in the London West End and UK Tour of Buddy: The Buddy Holly Story. Returning to NYC, he recorded and self-released his debut CD, ...to this day, which won raves in Billboard, The NY Times, and Mojo, and a spotlight on The World Cafe. He co-wrote a song with Rosanne Cash which appeared on her Grammy-nominated CD "Rules Of Travel," and performed with and wrote songs for Rock & Roll Hall of Famer Wanda Jackson. In 2002, he moved to the Catskills to raise his son, gradually returning to performing, first as children's entertainer Uncle Rock, then as an actor. He is also a writer. His first novel will be published by The Story Plant in February, 2016.
