Thomas Robson Brownhill
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Thomas Robson Brownhill (1821 at Margate – 1864) was a British comedian, stage actor and ballad singer who went by the stage name Frederick Robson.
He took to the stage in 1844 after serving some time as an apprentice to a London engraver; his greatest triumphs were won after 1853 on the boards of the Olympic Theatre, London; he combined in a high degree all the gifts of a low comedian with a rare power of rising to the grave and the pathetic.
