- Height5′ 10″ (1.78 m)
- Best known for getting stuffed in BAFTA Winner The Taxidermist, Robert Williamson is often cast as characters with an edge.
The second of four offspring to Rev. Magnus and Eunice Williamson, Robert was born in The Manse on Eday, in Orkney but grew up (for the 1st time!) in Shetland. Island life was extremely agreeable and particularly free, especially the air, which sometimes arrived at 100 miles an hour!
Music was Robert's first foray into performance learning piano, fiddle and acoustic guitar before settling for electric bass, playing rock n roll as a teenager - he still plays Bass and Guitar.
Directing and work assisting in post production provides a sound filmmaking knowledge base to bring to the front of the lens affording collaborators an intelligent, efficient and consummate performance every time.
3 of Robert's screen works have attracted BAFTA award nominations with 1 winner.
