He performed in numerous productions, including the role of Willie Eisenring in "The Firebugs", Job/Bob in Moonchildren and Jean-Paul Marat in Marat- Sade.

He has guest-starred and co-starred in many television Shows including Arrested Development, Just Shoot Me, and Shades of Blue. Robert can be seen co-starring with Michael Imperioli in "The M Word".
