Biography
A once shy, thoughtful and observant child, Robert McAtee was always questioning day-to-day mysteries and putting them under the light. A romance with movies led him to waking up one day as an actor, and life experience has brought integrity and edge along for the ride.

Published reviews for his work have described his varied performances as "Strong," "Stellar," and "Top-Notch," and he was recently observed in a Vanity Fair article. Robert continues to find mystery and shine a light back on the audience - not only as an actor but also as a musician and filmmaker.
