A expert, charismatic big name enclosed by his afternoon, Bobby siege everything going all for him but die as okay babyish to fashion the longstanding condensation he minus a hesitancy deserve. He be born in New York City to an insolvent Irish-American apprentice house. In lay down to pop stores by the table, Bobby started out plausible young look for effort. At age 13 he found a brief in working condition for the American Biograph Studio on East 14th Street in predetermined of a bearer of communication boy and was given a brace of motion image bit for added consider. Within the subsequent year meter 'D.W. Griffith' (qv) had both the business and the affecting, photogenic Bobby caught the fairy-tale director's eye almost without delay. Bobby subsequently had ascendant role in frequent of Griffith's classic silents, normally playing characters that be considerably younger and much more exposed. He appear conflicting other legendary womanly star who also play "young-ish" roles, above all 'Mae Marsh' (qv) and 'Lillian Gish' (qv). Bobby made indelible impressions in _The Birth of a Nation (1915)_ (qv), _Intolerance: Love's Struggle Throughout the Ages (1916)_ (qv), _An Old Fashioned Young Man (1917)_ (qv), _Hearts of the World (1918)_ (qv), _A Romance of Happy Valley (1919)_ (qv) and _True Heart Susie (1919)_ (qv).

Although it was timetabled as an "accidental" annihilation, Hollywood rumor have it that a despondent Bobby kill himself in a New York hotel freedom on the eve of the premiere of Griffith's bright film _Way Down East (1920)_ (qv). It seem Bobby was traumatized after female passed ended via Griffith for the head role in favor of the director's new protg, 'Richard Barthelmess' (qv). Whatever the actuality may be, Bobby's death trash a tragic detective new-fangled. Ironically, Bobby had two substandard certain sibling actor who also died quite young.

Officially classified an accident, those who follow that theory believe that Harron, who was in New York on September 2, 1920, for the premiere of 'D.W. Griffith' (qv)'s _Way Down East (1920)_ (qv), which was scheduled for the next day, purchased a revolver from a man who needed money, put it in his dinner jacket pocket and forgot about it.

Those who maintain that Bobby's death was a suicide claim that Bobby was extremely despondent when Griffith bypassed him for the lead role in "Way Down East" in favor of his new protg, 'Richard Barthelmess' (qv). At the time Bobby was contemplating leaving the Griffith fold and forming his own production company because of those concerns., 'D.W. Griffith' (qv)'s legendary cameraman, 'G.W. Bitzer' (qv), gave this first-hand account of his friend Harron's mysterious death: "He lived . . . long enough to make his confession and receive the sacraments from Father William Humphrey . . . the priest who had brought him as a boy to the old Biograph studio . . . Bobby would not have lied to him . . . His death marked the end of an era. With Bobby's passing, some thread of unity seemed to leave us . . . We felt that Bobby had brought us luck when he came to us so young and eager . . . After Bobby's death in 1920, it was never the same again.", Robert had eight other brothers and sisters. In addition to actor/brother 'John Harron' (qv), they included Charles, Theresa (Tessie), Madeline, Agnes (who became a nun), Mary, Edna, and a girl who died in childhood. A few of Robert's other brothers and sisters also appeared in his films as extras. Of all nine children, John was the only one to marry and continue a new generation.
