Joseph Taylor Robinson was born in 1872 near Lonoke, Arkansas. He briefly attended the University of Arkansas and the University of Virginia.

In 1912 he was elected governor of Arkansas, but resigned after seven weeks to fill the unexpired term in the U.S. Senate caused by the death of Jeff Davis.

He was a delegate to the Democratic National Convention in 1920, 1924, 1928, 1932 and 1936, and served as chairman of the convention in 1920, 1928, and 1936.
