Robb grew up in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Both of his grandfathers were professional truck drivers. Robb became obsessed with trucks as kid. In spite of his passion for trucks, Robb never became a driver like his grandpa's. Instead he honed his talents as an artist. Robb has a very unique skill-set. After art school he worked for a decade in software designing/animating video games with Atari, SEGA, and then THQ. Working with license properties: Warner Brothers, New Line Cinema and others, led to Robb shifting gears in the mid- 1990's. Robb became the national Marketing director for the Grave Digger Monster Truck Racing team. After adding some of his design touches to Grave Digger, he moved on and into interior design - that led to a national spotlight on HGTV. Never satisfied, Robb shifted back to his real passions -American big rigs.

Using his ever-creative skills enabled Robb to develop a concept from his childhood favorites: Big Rigs and TV! Robb went to work on a scratch-based set of ingredients, centered on semi trucks, and the incredible history and contributions they have made, and continue to make to the world. American Trucker the TV series was born in 2011 with Robb as the host and Executive Producer.

American Trucker was picked up by the Speed Channel (Fox Sports1) and premiered in January 2011 @ 10PM Thursday nights. Bringing his lifetime of truck knowledge and high-energy enthusiasm - taking a fearless approach to the camera, Robb conveyed "real" in "reality." The series lasted two full seasons before a network format change altered the course of the series and it was forced to take an exit.

American Trucker was a little show with almost no backing - yet quickly shot to being the #1 Show on Thursday nights! In fact, American Trucker quickly surpassed Speeds highest financially backed "Car Warriors" and never was out of the top 5 shows out of 27 shows on the network! American Trucker grew its ratings exponentially each week throughout its premiere season and the trend continued through season 2 - average season 2 cume was over 395,000 households per airing! Robb's approachable passion translated through the lens with a palpable energy, his kid-like fervor, sly humor and Mike Rowe-esque professionalism- Robb is a high energy host! Robb's proven himself as an Executive Producer and brings a unique perspective that engages a wide band of demographics with his brand of storytelling . . .
