Robert Broski is an actor, known for Trip to the Moon, Twin Peaks and U.S. Grant: American Warrior. I spotted Robert on Backstage, looking for interesting faces to capture in Los Angeles.
Robert is an actual Abraham Lincoln impersonator. He says that even though he was born and raised in Southern California, not Kentucky, he was destined to play Abe Lincoln. He has portrayed Mr. Lincoln in films, commercials, television, plays, and print work.
Tickled by his astonishing resemblance to the former President, I invited Robert to sit for a portrait in full Lincoln Wardrobe. Inspired by the recent portrayal of Daniel Day-Lewis , I created my own version of the Lincoln (2012) movie poster with a profile portrait.
