Robert Rickert
- Actor
Born, Robert Joseph Rickert Jr. in Baltimore, Maryland. Known as Bobby to family and friends, he was introduced to
video production early in life when he filmed, edited and performed in
skateboard videos. Throughout his high school years he continued to
hone his skills and expanded his interest in film making by writing and
producing skits and short films. Robert was accepted into Stevenson
University's Film, Video, and Theatre program where he continued to
work both in front and behind the camera. It was during his college
years that Robert recognized he had a special attraction to performing
on camera. Before long, Acting was all he wanted to do. Early in his
career, not willing to relinquish the Lead role he was offered, was so
committed the he was the only exception to the hiring, firing or
resignation of 3 full casts and crews before filming was completed on
the doomed project. On another project, he sustained a painfully broken
hand during a failed skateboarding stunt, performed the entire
physically demanding role in a flimsy wrist brace. His commitment to
and passion for acting continues to flourish with every new role.
