Steve Robinson
Steve Robinson was born in Kansas City, Missouri on April 18, 1953. The son of a chemist and a nurse, Robinson grew up in various cities in Missouri. Robinson studied education, journalism and film at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, Michigan.
Over the years, he’s taught high school in Michigan, wrote for the now defunct St. Louis Globe Democrat, taught ESL as an adjunct at Saint Louis University and submitted several rejected articles to the Film Noir Foundation’s Noir City Magazine.
An ardent servant of film and music, with a passion for film noir, Robinson is currently working his way at home, in numerical order, through The Complete Noir City film festival list which comprises all the films shown by Eddie Muller, since January 2003, at the ongoing Noir City festival in San Franciso. Robinson is currently on #245 of 548 noir films.
While in college, Robinson interviewed Pauline Kael, Andrew Sarris, Robert Altman, Paul Schrader, Werner Herzog, Dennis Hopper and Vincent Price.
Robinson’s first live music concert was seeing Jimi Hendrix perform at Kiel Auditorium in St. Louis, Missouri on November 3, 1968. His second concert was a week later, on November 9, 1968, when he saw The Doors at Kiel Auditorium. Robinson was 15 years old.
An avid follower of world news, Robinson has watched in horror at the genocide Israel is conducting in Gaza. Robinson encourages others to do what they can to bring the killing and suffering to an end.
