Charles Robinson's illustrious educational background was marked by academic distinction, as he graduated from Princeton University with honors in 1958, earning the prestigious Phi Beta Kappa and magna cum laude designations. His early exposure to the world of theater was courtesy of his theatrical family, who introduced him to the stage at just three years of age, with his Broadway debut following soon after.
Following his college graduation, Robinson transitioned to the world of film, making his screen debut in the 1961 classic "Splendor in the Grass." He went on to appear in a string of notable films, including "The Singing Nun" in 1966, "Shenandoah" in 1965, and "Take Her, She's Mine" in 1963.
Robinson's impressive resume also includes a successful stint on the Great White Way, with notable Broadway credits including "Tall Story," "The Pleasure of His Company," and "The Good Soup." After serving in the army, he and his wife settled in Los Angeles, allowing him to be closer to the hub of the film industry and his various television appearances, which included roles on popular shows such as "Laramie" in 1959, "Alfred Hitchcock Presents" in 1955, and "Bachelor Father" in 1957.
