After finishing his public school education, he then went on to a college in Carrollton and later attended the National Normal University in Lebanon, Ohio, where he graduated at twenty-one years of age, having completed a scientific course.

After graduating from college, Robinson worked as a teacher in Kentucky and Tennessee before moving to Kansas City, Missouri, where he was a clerk in a department store for a short time.

During his tenure, he drove out the saloons and gambling houses and also closed the red light district.

After the successful recall, he returned to the United States Assay Commission, where he did auditing and accounting work.
