Peter Robinson Biography
Peter Mark Robinson (born April 18, 1957) is an American author, research fellow, television host and former speechwriter for then-Vice President George H.W. Bush and President Ronald Reagan. He is currently the host of Uncommon Knowledge, an interview show by Stanford’s Hoover Institution. He is also a research fellow at the Hoover Institution.
Robinson lives in northern California with his wife, Edita, and their five children. Edita’s parents left Cuba in 1959 and she was born about 18 months later.
Robinson grew up in Vestal, New York. He attended Dartmouth College from 1975 to 1979, where he was a member of Kappa Kappa Kappa, and wrote for The Dartmouth. He majored in English and graduated summa cum laude, then continued his studies at Christ Church, Oxford University, pursuing a second Bachelor’s degree in Philosophy, Politics and Economics and graduating in 1982. Robinson also attended Stanford University’s Graduate School of Business. He graduated with an MBA in 1990.
After Oxford, Robinson applied for a position at the White House. In an event he describes as a “fluke”, he was given a job as the chief speechwriter for Vice President Bush. In what he calls a “second fluke”, he was then transferred to President Reagan’s staff as a special assistant and speechwriter, where he wrote the famed 1987 Tear down this wall address. Referencing Soviet General Secretary Mikhail Gorbachev’s refusal to remove the Berlin Wall, the speech, delivered by Reagan at the Brandenburg Gate in West Berlin on 12 June 1987, contained the sentence: “Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall!”
In the early 1990s, Robinson joined the News Corporation run by Rupert Murdoch, and then served as press secretary to the Chairman of the Securities and Exchange Commission. In 1993, Robinson became a research fellow at the Hoover Institution, Stanford’s conservative research center. In addition to writing about business and politics, he also edits the Hoover Digest and hosted a PBS public affairs television program Uncommon Knowledge, later re-branded as a Web cast at hoover.org, and then arranged to be released semiweekly on National Review Online. He has written How Ronald Reagan Changed My Life and It’s My Party: A Republican’s Messy Love Affair with the GOP, a study of the Republican Party.
Robinson wrote more than 300 speeches during his White House tenure. After serving for six years, Robinson attended business school at Stanford University where he earned a Master of Business Administration in 1990. The journal he kept of his two-year experience there was the basis for his book Snapshots from Hell: The Making of an MBA, published in 1994, which details the considerable difficulty he encountered during the first year of business school due to his lack of a “quantitative background”.
In 2003, he published his third book, How Ronald Reagan Changed My Life. He has stated that it is “nothing less than a love story – an account of the profound respect and affection that one young man came to feel for the President who changed his life forever.” The book received a favorable review from Margaret Thatcher, and she has remarked that it features a “wealth of insights”.
He served on the Board of Trustees of Dartmouth College from 2005 to 2013.
