Robin F. Baker

Actor · Aiken, South Carolina, USA

Robin F. Baker is an actor, director, producer, writer, and award-winning animator born in Aiken, South Carolina to Dorothy Ann Abney and Willie Lee Baker. He was raised in The Bronx and received a Regents diploma from LaGuardia High School, earned an Associate's (AAS) degree from Brooklyn's New York City College of Technology and a Bachelor's (BFA) degree from the School of Visual Arts in Manhattan. Despite his formal art education and successful career in New York City's graphic design and advertising industry, he always wanted to be an actor. After being asked to play the lead in an NYU student film entitled "Blue in Green" by Mia Taper in 2014, Robin began the transition to becoming a full-time professional actor. He quickly began to embody a wide range of on-screen comedic and dramatic characters in various feature films, film shorts, music videos, commercials, industrials and voice-overs. Robin even landed an atypical role as a Dutch Cop on CBS Television's MacGyver (2016), where he was able to use his foreign-language skills due to his years as a temporary European resident. Some of his latest feature work involves playing Robin Harley in the horror Red Letters (2019) and Stan, a washed-up murder tour operator in the horror-comedy feature 6:66 PM (2017) -- both directed by Jim Klock Robin is also very active on the independent short-film circuit and has recently played the role of Patrick, Jr. -- a middle-aged, adopted prodigal son dealing with the stark, personal realities of his estranged older sister and their demented elderly father in the award-winning Two Peas in a Pod (2019), written by Chantey Colet and directed by Collins Abbott White. He was also able to reprise his linguistic abilities as Presidential Chief of Staff Donald Ryans in A New Age: Clash of Civilizations (2017), directed by Kiyun Sung, where he spoke Korean to his old friend, Right State Chancellor Yoon Taek-soo, played by Joomin Hwang. Robin has also periodically donated his time and talent to the students and faculty at NYU Tisch's Sight and Sound Studio and has actively participated in the post-graduate work of its alumni. One of his favorite collaborators is writer/director Mark Depasquale, who tapped Robin as the lead in his indie action-comedy short Troubleshoot (2018), where Robin portrays the role of a hitman who has more than just a little trouble "executing" his task. Some of Mr. Baker's latest projects have been behind the camera as director, producer, editor and composer (Obi Aké) in the new Amazon Prime series Deceptives (2020), written by and starring Catherine Crumber as Det. Michelle Simmons and co-starring Gisane Vincent as Det. Jackie Brower. He also has a few screenplays in the works and enjoys his slow-cooker approach, which he feels allows more "flavor" and imagination to seep through.

Percentiles are each film's standing among all films on MovieCove; the typical film is the median, so one outlier cannot drag it. Percentiles and reviewer scores count the films IMDb credits them on, for now; the Midcredits score bands, the shape of the crowd and the two cards count their MovieCove titles, shows included (a show ranked among shows), appearances as themselves left out. A descriptor is the shape of a title's IMDb rating distribution against the catalog; "most divisive" needs a spread wider than half of all titles, and a card names only a principal credit: a craft role, and on a show a crew role or a run of episodes, never a courtesy credit or a one-off guest spot.
