Robby Robinson

Robby Robinson (born 1946) is an American former professional bodybuilder, known as The Black Prince and Mr Lifestyle and, early in his career, as Robin Robinson. Over a 27-year professional career he retired in 2001 at age 55, and he appeared in several films including the 1977 docudrama Pumping Iron. Born in Damascus, Georgia, and raised in Tallahassee, Florida, he competed in football and track and field at Florida A and M University, noticed how his body responded to weights and entered his first bodybuilding contest. After more than 300 amateur competitions he turned professional in 1975 and won the IFBB Mr. America, Mr. World and Mr. Universe titles that first year, took the first Night of Champions in 1979 and the first Masters Olympia in 1994, and won its 50 plus division in 1997 and 2000.
