Early life
Carradine was born in Hollywood, California, and the son of actress and singer Sonia Sorel (née Henius) and actor John Carradine. He is one of several prominent figures in the Carradine family. He is the brother of Christopher and Keith Carradine, Bruce's paternal half-brother and the late David Carradine's father, as well as Michael Bowen's maternal half-brother. Max Henius, his maternal grandfather, was a biochemist, and his maternal grandmother was the sister of historian Johan Ludvig Heiberg.
When Carradine's parents were 2 years old, they divorced. His father and his brothers, Christopher and Keith, were given custody of him due to a tense custody conflict. The children spent three months in a courthouse for abused children as wards of the court during the custody battle. "It was like being in prison," Keith's brother remarked on the occasion. There were bars on the windows, but we were only allowed to see our parents through glass doors. It was sad. We'd all be there on either side of the glass door yelling.
Carradine was raised mainly by his stepmother, his father's third wife, Doris Grimshaw, who didn't believe her to be his mother until he was introduced to Sonia Sorel at a Christmas party when he was 14 years old. Robert lived in Laurel Canyon, California, with his half-brother David, who was still in high school. He indulged in two of his main passions under David's care: race car racing and music. He and David were members of a small club in Los Angeles and San Francisco.
Personal life
Carradine's three children, actress Ever Carradine (with Susan Snyder), Marika Reed Carradine with his ex-wife Edie Mani, and his son, Ian Alexander Carradine were all present. He is also the uncle (via his older brother Keith) of actress Martha Plimpton.
Carradine competed in the Rolex 24 race in Daytona in 2000, finishing 29th in the GTU class and 6th overall.
Acting career
Carradine made his film debut in 1972 in The Cowboys, alongside John Wayne. He was also featured in a short-lived television series of the same name that was based on the film. In the Martin Scorsese film Mean Streets shooting to death played by his brother, David, he made a camedic appearance as a killer.
He worked with David on various independent projects, including a biker film called You and Me (1975) and an unreleased musical called A Country Mile. He also did film work for David's cult classic Vietnam War-inspired Americana, which wasn't out until 1983.
When Carradine played Jim Cantrell in Paul Bartel's Cannonball in 1976, he had the opportunity to demonstrate what he considered to be his "first dream" car racing. Robert's character leads the cross country road race, defeating Coy "Cannonball" Buckman, who was played by his brother, David. In 1977, Robert became a snack for the vengeful killer whale in the Jaws imitating film Orca.
In another film about young Californians heading up to Washington and Alaska to seek their fortunes, Robert performed alongside other Hollywood offspring in the 1977 film "Joyride," where he appeared with Desi Arnaz, Jr., Melanie Griffith, and Anne Lockhart (daughter of June Lockhart).
Robert landed a demanding role in Hal Ashby's award-winning Vietnam War drama, Coming Home, starring Jane Fonda and Jon Voight, in 1978. Some believe he might be the finest actor in his family due to his appearance.
Robert was instrumental in arranging David and Keith's appearance in one of the most unusual casting choices in film history. The Carradines appeared in The Long Riders (1980) alongside three other groups of acting brothers: Stacy and James Keach, Dennis Quaid, and Nicholas Guest.
Carradine appeared alongside Mark Hamill and Lee Marvin in Samuel Fuller's The Big Red One, retracing Fuller's World War II experience. The film was narrated by his character, who was based on Fuller himself.

He created one named after his daughter, Everly, in the film. He appeared in the music video for The Motels' hit song "Suddenly Last Summer" as lead singer Martha Davis' love interest.
Lewis Skolnick, Carradine's greatest film success to date appeared in Revenge of the Nerds in 1984. Carradine spent time at The University of Arizona, where the movie was shot, and she was preparing for the commotion. "No fraternity selected him," Carradine told Carradine that he was indeed correct for the portion of the nerd that no one wanted to claim as their own." Carradine reimagined Skolnick's role in three sequels, taking over as executive producer in the latter two sequels. During an interview at the Niagara Falls Comic Con in 2018, Carradine joined Andrew Cassese and Don Gibb. He appeared in Max Keeble's Big Move in 2001 as Donald Keeble.
