Robert Seeliger

Robert Seeliger was born on October 13, 1966, in Prince George, British Columbia, and is the oldest of three children. His mother Anne McGregor, a health care worker, is Scottish, and his father Juergen Seeliger, a steam engineer, is German. Robert was six years old when his parents divorced. He and his brother were raised by their father on a hobby farm with cattle and horses in a remote area of Northwestern Alberta, in the foot hills of the Rocky Mountain Range. The closest village from where the Seeliger's lived, was Elmworth, consisting of a school, curling rink, and a Post Office. Robert attended Elmworth Elementary School, and then later Beaverlodge Highschool. He left home at sixteen and graduated at Spectrum Highschool in Victoria, British Columbia. After attending one year at Camosun College, Robert dropped out and worked as a tree feller, DJ, and a carpenter for several years before entering show business.
