Within minutes, he won the hearts of the nation by sharing highlights of their childhood on Chicagos Southside, where they were raised by exemplary and devoted parents. Fraser and Marian Robinson instilled the values of education, hard work, and courage in their children and always encouraged them to reach far beyond what they ever dreamed possible.
