Born in Pickerington, Ohio, Robinson attended the common schools, graduated from the Ohio Northern University in 1901 (B. Comm. Sci.), the Indiana Law School (now Indiana University Robert H.

Robinson was a member of the Indiana Senate from 1914 to 1918, and was the Republican floor leader during the entire period.

He was reelected in 1928, and served from October 20, 1925, to January 3, 1935; in 1934 he was an unsuccessful candidate for reelection. While in the Senate he was chairman of the Committee on Pensions (Seventieth through Seventy-second Congresses).
