Robert was born February 23, 1935 in Oklahoma City to Joseph Francis and Frances (Tucker) Cody. He graduated from John Carroll Elementary School in May 1949 and in 1953 from Bishop McGuiness High School where he won the Scholastic Art Award and a scholarship to study at the Layton School of Art in Milwaukee, Wisconsin while taking academic classes at Marquette University. In 1955, he set sail on the Queen Mary from New York to Paris, France where he studied at the Academy de La Grande Chaumiere under the direction of the world-renowned French sculptor, Osip Zadkine.
He returned to the states and completed an undergraduate degree in geology from St. Louis University in 1960, a M.A. degree in geology from the University of Wyoming in 1962 and a Ph.D. degree in Geology from the University of Colorado in 1968.
On July 16, 1967, Robert married fellow geologist, Anita Meleshka in East Meadow, New York. Their marriage was blessed with two children: Elizabeth in 1970 and Nicholas Robert in 1973.

Grants from the Academy of Applied Sciences (1982-2000) supported the summer work of Ames High students growing crystals and working in his laboratory.
