An American actor, whose best-known role was that of a tough-talking gangster. He was born on December 12, 1893, in Bucharest, Romania and educated at the College of the City of New York, Columbia University, and the American Academy of Dramatic Arts. After making his acting debut in Binghamton, New York, in 1913, Robinson became a leading performer on the New York City stage. He appeared in ten plays produced during the 1920s by the Theater Guild. In 1929, his film career began. From the movie Little Caesar he achieved immediate success. His other important films (many made at Warner Bros, his home studio for more than a decade), include Dr. Ehrlich's Magic Bullet (1940), The Woman in the Window (1944), Double Indemnity (1944), Scarlet Street (1945), The Stranger (1946), All My Sons (1948), Key Largo (1948), The Glass Web (1953), Two Weeks in Another Town (1962), and Cheyenne Autumn (1964). Robinson returned to a role in the theater in Darkness at Noon (1951-1952) and made a successful return to Broadway in American playwright Paddy Chayefsky's Middle of the Night (1956). He died shortly before his autobiography, All My Days, was published in 1974. He was never nominated for an Academy Award, but after his death the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences honored him with a special Academy Award for his fifty years of achievement in motion pictures. Robinson died on January 26, 1973, in Los Angeles, California, United States.
