Patrick Robertson was born and raised in Missouri, attended Washington University in St. Louis, where he graduated from medical school in 1957 and practiced medicine in San Francisco for forty years. At age 27 he wrote a novel, 'The Boulevard,' the manuscript of which was stolen and never recovered. Married and divorced twice, he has four living children.
