He attended college in Colorado. when he was featured in the PBS documentary Banished, Robb compared a Klan hood to a businessman's tie, claiming that "it's just tradition".

In the 1990s, with the help of his daughter Rachel Pendegraft, Robb attempted to rebrand the Klan and update its image, claiming that it represented "heritage, not hate" and present its views as more publicly acceptable. He and his daughter later produced public-access television shows to promote white supremacist views, including The Andrew Show, which was hosted by Robb's young grandson.

Robb has maintained his ties with other far-right groups; he has spoken at the Aryan Nations's annual "World Congress" of hate group leaders, he has appeared on Jamie Kelso's white supremacist Voice of Reason Radio Network, and he has regularly contributed to the white supremacist Internet forum website Stormfront. In 2009, Robb's daughter Rachel Pendergraft and his granddaughters, Charity and Shelby Pendergraft, formed a white nationalist band which they called Heritage Connection. Robb's Party publishes The Crusader, a quarterly publication. In November 2016, just days before the presidential election, Robb wrote a front-page article under the title "Make America Great Again" in The Crusader, devoted to a lengthy endorsement of Donald Trump and Trump's message. The Trump campaign responded by denouncing the Crusader article.

In May 2022, British YouTuber Niko Omilana published a video titled "I Pranked America's Most Racist Man" in which he described his experiences in Zinc and Harrison while he disguised himself as a journalist for the BBC. The video includes an interview with Robb, and during the interview, Robb unwittingly shouts out fake Instagram users whose names phoneticize phrases such as "BLM" (Black Lives Matter).
