Lisa Robinson is an American music journalist, author, and broadcaster renowned for her pioneering coverage of rock and roll since the 1970s, including embedding on world tours with bands like Led Zeppelin and the Rolling Stones.^[1]^[2] As a trailblazing female figure in the male-dominated music journalism scene, she co-founded the influential magazine Rock Scene in 1973 and served as its editor, capturing the raw energy of New York City's punk and rock underground.^[3]^[4] Robinson's career spans decades of exclusive interviews with icons such as John Lennon, David Bowie, Michael Jackson, and the Rolling Stones, often providing intimate insights into their lives and the era's cultural shifts.^[2]^[5] She later became a longtime music columnist for the New York Post and joined Vanity Fair as a contributing editor in 1999, where she has written numerous cover stories on music and pop culture.^[6]^[7] In 2014, Robinson published her memoir There Goes Gravity: A Life in Rock and Roll, a collection of behind-the-scenes anecdotes from her four-decade career that highlights her role in shaping music journalism.^[5]^[2] Beyond print, she has hosted radio shows, including a weekly program on SiriusXM launched in 2021, further cementing her status as a preeminent authority on rock music history.^[8]

Early life and education

Upbringing

Lisa Robinson was born and raised on Manhattan's Upper West Side in a semi-liberal, left-wing Jewish household during the post-World War II era.^[9] Her parents, while not particularly engaged with popular culture, fostered an environment rich in music; her mother was a pianist who studied sacred Hebrew music and co-founded the Hebrew Arts School for Music and Dance in New York.^[10] The family home often featured folk artists like Woody Guthrie, Pete Seeger, and Lead Belly, reflecting their progressive leanings, though television was limited to one set in the parents' bedroom, treated as a rare indulgence.^[10] As a child, Robinson developed an early fascination with music by listening to jazz broadcasts on a transistor radio late at night, hiding under the covers and imagining a vibrant, alluring world beyond her Upper West Side surroundings.^[10] This curiosity blossomed during her teenage years at the Bronx High School of Science, a prestigious and competitive public school known for its rigorous academic standards amid New York's dynamic post-war cultural landscape.^[11] There, she balanced the demands of a science-focused curriculum with clandestine adventures, sneaking into Greenwich Village clubs to catch performances by jazz icons such as Thelonious Monk at the Five Spot and Anita O'Day, as well as early rock acts like Little Richard and Screamin' Jay Hawkins.^[10]^[12] These adolescent experiences ignited Robinson's lifelong passion for music and urban culture, laying the groundwork for her future pursuits while she navigated the intellectual intensity of Bronx Science.^[11] Following high school, she pursued higher education at Syracuse University.^[11]

Education

Lisa Robinson attended Syracuse University, enrolling in the mid-1960s and graduating in 1969 with a bachelor's degree.^[10]^[13] During her studies, she did not take any formal journalism courses, but her university education laid the groundwork for her future career in writing and media.^[13] Following graduation, Robinson briefly served as a substitute teacher for first-graders in Harlem in 1969, an experience that marked her initial foray into professional work amid New York's vibrant cultural landscape.^[10]^[13] This period of teaching allowed her to explore her interests beyond academia, honing skills in communication and observation that would later define her distinctive approach to music journalism.

Career

Early journalism and rock scene

Lisa Robinson entered the music journalism field in 1969, initially taking a part-time filing job for Richard Robinson, a music producer, DJ, and columnist whose syndicated work provided her early exposure to the industry.^[14] Soon after, she married Richard and assumed his column for a British publication, leveraging his connections to secure access to artists, free albums, and concert tickets, which marked her transition from substitute teaching to full immersion in rock culture.^[15] In 1973, Robinson co-founded Rock Scene magazine alongside her husband and Lenny Kaye, positioning it as a key outlet for underground rock photography and candid interviews that captured the raw energy of emerging acts.^[14] The publication emphasized visual storytelling and insider perspectives, reflecting her growing role in New York's vibrant music scene. Through Rock Scene and her freelance contributions, she conducted intimate interviews with major rock acts, including The Rolling Stones during their tours and Led Zeppelin, where her trust-based approach yielded behind-the-scenes insights into band dynamics and performances.^[16] Robinson's reporting extended to the burgeoning punk movement in the mid-1970s, where she frequented iconic venues like Max's Kansas City and CBGB, chronicling the scene's gritty innovation.^[17] She interviewed pivotal figures such as Patti Smith, whose poetry-infused performances at CBGB helped define the era, and The Ramones, whose blistering sets at the Bowery club she documented as emblematic of punk's raw rebellion.^[17] Her coverage highlighted the intimate, community-driven atmosphere of these spaces, which fostered acts like Television and Blondie amid New York's downtown upheaval.^[14] A pivotal moment came in 1975 when Robinson served as press liaison for The Rolling Stones' Tour of the Americas, managing media access while contributing her own dispatches on the tour's excesses and interpersonal tensions, all while navigating the blurred lines between journalist and insider.^[15] This role amplified her reputation for accessible, personality-driven reporting. She honed this style in pieces for outlets like Interview and Creem, where her "Eleganza" column blended gossip, fashion, and music commentary on artists from Aerosmith to the Who, prioritizing personal rapport over critique.^[18]^[15]

Print and magazine contributions

Lisa Robinson began her prominent print career as a longtime music columnist for the New York Post during the 1970s and 1980s, where she covered breaking music news, in-depth artist profiles, and emerging cultural trends in rock and pop.^[6] Her columns provided readers with insider accounts of the era's vibrant scene, often drawing from her extensive tour experiences with bands like Led Zeppelin and the Rolling Stones.^[19] Expanding internationally, Robinson contributed features to New Musical Express (NME) in the UK, offering transatlantic insights into American rock developments.^[20] Notable pieces included her 1975 interviews with John Lennon, which explored his post-Beatles life and political views from a New York perspective.^[21] These articles bridged UK and US music audiences, highlighting cross-cultural influences in the rock world.^[22] In the 2000s, Robinson joined Vanity Fair as a contributing editor, a role she has held continuously, producing cover stories and features on major artists such as Michael Jackson, David Bowie, and Kanye West.^[6] Her Vanity Fair work often delved into artists' personal and creative evolutions, including a 2009 retrospective on Jackson's career and influence.^[23] Similarly, her profiles on Bowie examined his stylistic innovations, while pieces on West addressed his role in hip-hop's mainstream ascent.^[24] Beyond these outlets, Robinson wrote syndicated features for The New York Times, including high-profile interviews like her 1970s discussions with John Lennon on domestic life and music, and her 1985 profile of Madonna in Rock Video USA, which captured the singer's early ambitions and rise to fame.^[24] These pieces exemplified her access to pivotal figures, blending biographical depth with cultural analysis.^[25] Throughout her print career, Robinson's reporting style evolved to emphasize deep personal relationships with artists, unparalleled backstage access, and the gender dynamics of rock journalism—a field dominated by men during her early years.^[26] As one of the few women in the profession in the 1970s, she cultivated trust that allowed candid conversations, often positioning her as a confidante rather than an interrogator, which informed her nuanced portrayals of artists' vulnerabilities and industry barriers.^[19] This approach not only secured exclusive insights but also highlighted women's underrepresentation in rock narratives.^[27]

Broadcasting and media roles

In the 1970s, Lisa Robinson co-hosted a syndicated radio show alongside her husband, Richard Robinson, a prominent DJ and music producer, where they delved into rock music discussions, artist spotlights, and emerging trends in the New York underground scene.^[14] The program, which aired during the height of the rock era, allowed her to leverage her growing expertise in music journalism for live audio formats, featuring interviews and commentary that complemented her print work without overlapping into detailed written profiles.^[28] Robinson expanded into television in the early 1980s as co-host of Radio 1990, a half-hour music video series on the USA Network that ran from March 1983 to September 1986.^[29] Alongside co-host Kathryn Kinley, she interviewed prominent musicians such as Gene Simmons of Kiss and members of 'Til Tuesday, while covering live events, video premieres, and industry news, often incorporating celebrity guest hosts to spotlight new releases and performances.^[30] The show marked her shift toward visual media, enabling dynamic, on-camera interactions with artists that captured the immediacy of the MTV era. She also contributed as a host to the USA Network's late-night program Night Flight, further immersing her in cable television's burgeoning music coverage from 1981 onward.^[6] Throughout her career, Robinson collaborated with Richard Robinson on various music projects, including production efforts tied to her journalistic access, such as supporting early recordings and events for New York acts like the New York Dolls and those emerging from CBGB.^[1] These ventures, often blending her interviewing skills with his production background, facilitated behind-the-scenes involvement in artist development and live showcases during the 1970s punk and rock explosion. In later years, Robinson maintained an active presence in broadcasting through guest appearances and her own programs. She appeared on the Broken Record podcast in 2021, hosted by Rick Rubin, sharing career anecdotes from her decades interviewing icons like John Lennon and Lady Gaga.^[1] That same year, she launched Call Me With Lisa Robinson, a weekly SiriusXM talk show on the Volume channel (Ch. 106), where she conducted in-depth conversations with artists including Debbie Harry of Blondie and Cameron Crowe, focusing on music history and personal stories.^[31] This transition to multimedia platforms underscored her evolution from print-centric journalism to real-time audio engagements, fostering direct dialogues with musicians that echoed her earlier radio and TV work.

Later career and influence

In the 2000s and beyond, Robinson maintained her position as a contributing editor at Vanity Fair, where she produced the magazine's annual music portfolios from 2000 to 2006 and continued authoring the "Hot Tracks" column along with in-depth profiles of contemporary artists.^[24] Her 2010 cover story on Lady Gaga explored the singer's rise to stardom, delving into personal revelations about fame, relationships, and creative pressures during a period of intense media scrutiny.^[32] Similarly, her profile on Beyoncé highlighted the artist's evolution from Destiny's Child to a solo icon, emphasizing themes of empowerment and industry navigation.^[24] Through oral histories on eras like Motown, disco, and Laurel Canyon, Robinson reflected on broader shifts in the music industry, including the transition from analog to digital eras and evolving artist-fan dynamics.^[24] Robinson is widely recognized as a trailblazer for women in rock journalism, having entered a male-dominated field in the 1970s where female reporters often faced exclusion from backstage access and serious assignments.^[7] In her 2020 book Nobody Ever Asked Me About the Girls: Women, Music, and Fame, she detailed the barriers encountered by female artists and journalists alike, drawing from decades of interviews to amplify voices in punk, pop, and beyond, such as Patti Smith and Stevie Nicks.^[33] Her work challenged gender norms by securing trust-based interviews that revealed the personal costs of fame for women, contributing to a more inclusive narrative in music reporting.^[34] Post-2010, Robinson expanded into broadcasting and public speaking, launching the weekly SiriusXM radio show Call Me With Lisa Robinson on the Volume channel in February 2021, where she shared career highlights and fielded listener calls about icons like David Bowie and Iggy Pop.^[31] She appeared on podcasts such as Broken Record with Rick Rubin in 2021, discussing her four-decade career and interviews spanning John Lennon to modern stars, and spoke on panels addressing diversity in journalism and support for women in music, including a 2021 Breakfast Club interview.^[1]^[35] Robinson's influence extends to mentoring emerging journalists, emphasizing a trust-building approach that prioritizes genuine relationships over aggressive questioning, a model she credits for her unprecedented access throughout her career.^[36] In a 2014 Teen Vogue feature, she advised aspiring writers on persistence and authenticity, drawing from her own experiences to guide younger professionals navigating a digital media landscape.^[13] Her cultural legacy is evident in rock history accounts, such as her role in introducing Lou Reed to CBGB's punk scene in the 1970s, which she recounted in memoirs and interviews that have informed documentaries and retrospectives on New York City's underground music evolution.^[37]

Written works

Novels

Lisa Robinson's foray into fiction is represented by her sole novel, Walk on Glass, published in 1982 by Newmarket Press.^[38] Drawing on her deep immersion in the rock music scene as a journalist, the book offers a semi-autobiographical glimpse into the glamour and grit of the industry, focusing on themes of ambition, fleeting fame, romantic entanglements, and the excesses that accompany stardom.^[38] At 387 pages, it captures the era's music world through a narrative lens informed by Robinson's firsthand encounters with artists and executives.^[38] The story centers on protagonist Lindel James, a talented young folk-rock singer from New Jersey whose lifelong dream of professional success leads her into the cutthroat recording industry.^[38] With a voice blending Laura Nyro's cool introspection and raw rock energy, Lindel partners with Jeff Stein, an ambitious manager who accelerates her rise to fame but simultaneously exposes her to the unglamorous realities of exploitation, betrayal, and power dynamics backstage.^[38] This plot arc highlights the protagonist's naive optimism clashing with the industry's predatory nature, reflecting broader critiques of how personal and professional lives intertwine in pursuit of celebrity.^[38] Critics acknowledged Robinson's adept use of her insider perspective, with The New York Times describing the novel as demonstrating a "sound, if somewhat predictable, instinct for what is commercial," crediting her vigorous application of record business knowledge to craft an engaging debut.^[38] Written amid her expanding roles in journalism and broadcasting— including hosting the syndicated radio show The Inside Track—the book emerged from her experiences navigating the 1980s music landscape.^[39] No further novels followed, marking Walk on Glass as her primary contribution to fictional literature.^[31]

Memoirs

Lisa Robinson's first memoir, There Goes Gravity: A Life in Rock and Roll, published in 2014 by Riverhead Books (ISBN 9781594487149), chronicles over four decades of her experiences as a music journalist, drawing on personal encounters and interviews with prominent artists. The book recounts pivotal moments, such as introducing David Bowie to Lou Reed and Iggy Pop at a Manhattan dinner, visiting a young Michael Jackson at his Encino home, and extended conversations with Patti Smith, the Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, John Lennon, U2, Eminem, Jay-Z, Lady Gaga, and Kanye West.^[40] Central themes include the privileges of unprecedented access to rock's inner circles, the trust built through intimate, off-the-record interactions, and the challenges of navigating gender dynamics as one of the few women in a male-dominated field during rock's formative years.^[19] Robinson reflects on these episodes as a post-career synthesis of her archives, aiming to contextualize her professional journey without retreading chronological timelines.^[16] Her second memoir, Nobody Ever Asked Me About the Girls: Women, Music, and Fame, released in 2020 by Henry Holt and Co. (ISBN 9781627794909), shifts focus to the female artists and industry figures she covered throughout her career, addressing long-overlooked narratives in rock and pop history.^[41] Based on new and archival interviews with over 40 women, including Tina Turner, Joni Mitchell, Stevie Nicks, Donna Summer, Bette Midler, Alanis Morissette, Linda Ronstadt, Mary J. Blige, Lady Gaga, Jennifer Lopez, Adele, Beyoncé, and Rihanna, the book explores themes of sexism, ageism, abuse, fame's toll on family and motherhood, and the business of music from a female perspective.^[42] Motivated by the industry's historical emphasis on male stories and her own role as a pioneering female journalist, Robinson uses the work to highlight these women's resilience and contributions, filling gaps in music historiography by centering their voices.^[43] Both memoirs received positive attention for their vivid anecdotes and insider insights, with There Goes Gravity praised by The New York Times as a "winning" account that illuminates the rare perspective of a female rock journalist through engaging, behind-the-scenes stories.^[15] Nobody Ever Asked Me About the Girls was commended in The Washington Post for providing an overdue behind-the-scenes examination of women's experiences in music, though some reviews, like one in The Arts Fuse, noted frustrations with its selective depth.^[43]^[44] Together, the books have impacted music journalism by amplifying underrepresented stories, particularly those of women, and drawing on Robinson's extensive personal archives to offer authentic, reflective contributions to rock history narratives.^[45]

Personal life

Marriage to Richard Robinson

Lisa Robinson first encountered Richard Robinson in 1969 within New York City's burgeoning rock music scene, where he was a prominent DJ on the graveyard shift at WNEW-FM radio and maintained a syndicated music column.^[10]^[14] Three months after their meeting, she left her teaching position to join him full-time in the music industry, initially assisting with his column for the British publication Disc and Music Echo.^[12] The couple married in the early 1970s, though the exact date remains private.^[46] Their partnership extended deeply into professional collaborations, blending their shared passion for rock music. Together, they edited magazines such as Hit Parader and co-founded Rock Scene in 1973 alongside Lenny Kaye, a publication that captured the raw energy of the era's punk and rock acts through candid photography and insider reporting.^[12]^[14] Richard, who also worked as a producer at RCA Records—signing and producing artists including David Bowie, Lou Reed, and the Kinks—provided Robinson with unparalleled access to performers and events, while she contributed her journalistic insights to his radio endeavors.^[10] Later in his career, Richard pursued interests in magic, further diversifying their joint creative pursuits.^[10] Immersed in the rock scene, the Robinsons frequently attended concerts and club nights together, forging connections at venues like CBGB where they socialized with emerging talents such as Patti Smith and the Ramones in informal, backstage environments.^[14] Their mutual support was evident in how Richard's industry role facilitated her entry and advancement in music journalism, while her writing amplified their collective presence in the field.^[14] Richard Robinson passed away on November 15, 2018, at their home in Manhattan.^[47]^[46] In subsequent interviews, Lisa Robinson has reflected on their enduring bond as a foundational element of her career, preserving mementos from their shared life—including his office filled with vinyl records—as a testament to their intertwined paths in rock and roll.^[10]

Home and later years

Following the death of her husband, Richard Robinson, in November 2018, Lisa Robinson has continued to make her long-term residence on Manhattan's Upper East Side the center of her personal life. She and Richard rented the two-bedroom apartment in 1976, where she has lived for over 45 years as of 2021, filling it with an extensive collection of rock memorabilia, including thousands of vinyl records, hundreds of cassette tapes from her interviews, and artifacts like a silver box gifted by John Lennon and Yoko Ono in 1980.^[10]^[47] Robinson has preserved Richard's office as a dedicated space, now serving as storage for the vinyl collection and occasionally functioning as a radio studio, particularly during the COVID-19 period when she launched her SiriusXM show from home. Her post-2018 routines revolve around writing longhand on pink legal pads in the apartment's library—once the dining room—listening to music amid her archives, and participating in occasional cultural events tied to her enduring passion for rock history.^[10]^[31] Beyond professional pursuits, Robinson's interests include collecting rock ephemera, such as ashtrays, menus, and doll heads accumulated from decades of touring and interviewing, which she displays throughout the apartment alongside family photos and mementos from iconic venues like El Morocco. This home, established during her marriage to Richard as a shared haven for their music-infused lives, reflects her ongoing commitment to archiving and immersing herself in the cultural artifacts of rock 'n' roll.^[10] As of 2025, Robinson remains a contributing editor at Vanity Fair, where she continues to write on music and culture, demonstrating her sustained vitality and perspective within the evolving music world despite advancing age.^[24]
