As such, not much is known about her parents or educational background. Her acting career started in 1977 when she bagged a minor role in a film titled “Having Babies II.” 

Her role as Terri in the film opened doors for her, leading to her appearing in other projects. Some of her other movie credits include: “One Shoe Movie” (1982), “Over the Brooklyn Bridge” (1984), “Lottery!” (1984), “Patty Hearst” (1988), and “Awful” (2018). 

Robinson worked as a model off the set thanks to her beautiful physique. The gorgeous woman did not appear in many films. However, the few she did feature showcased her talent. It is one of the reasons she is still considered an icon in the acting industry.

Either way, Robinson followed his steps, and they moved to Pennsylvania to start a new life. After stepping away from the set, he turned to carpentry, a skill he had honed even while acting. 

He said, “Actors spend most of their time out of work, so I spend more time making furniture. The thing about furniture that’s much better than acting is that it’s just me. There’s no director, no script–the concept is me unless a client wants something.”

He said Pennsylvania was the best choice because things were cheaper and the seasons changed. He now uses his carpentry career to support his family.

Schoeffling has his furniture store and is the CEO of the establishment. He was also once known to have dabbled in wrestling and modeling. He had two kids with his wife, Valerie C. Robinson.
