Robert Homans was born November 8, 1877, in Malden, Massachusetts.[3] Although he studied medicine for three years after his college graduation, a 1906 newspaper article noted that "the 'stage bee' got into his bonnet and nothing would do but that he become an actor."[4] His Broadway credits include The Blue Bird (1910), The Blue Envelope (1915), Johnny, Get Your Gun (1916) and Like a King (1921).[5][6]

His screen debut came in Madame Sherry. He appeared in some 400 films between 1917 and 1946.[3]

On April 18, 1909, Homans married Agnes J. Mellon in San Francisco.[7] Another source gives his wife's name as Agnes Maynard.[8]

Homans died in Los Angeles, California on July 28, 1947, from a heart attack.[3][5]
