Dr. Bernard Robinson was the first Afro-American neurosurgeon trained by the USA military. His first assignment as a neurosurgeon was Tripler Army Medical Center in Hawaii. His wife and he elected to live in Hawaii where he met and befriended Dr. Ralph B. Cloward, Hawaii's first neurosurgeon. Dr. Robinson also interacted in some way with most of Hawaii's neurosurgeons. When he became president of the Hawaii Medical Association in 2016, he sought more information regarding the history of Hawaii neurosurgery. Finding negligible information on the subject, he realized that he was best equipped to research and write the history of Hawaii's military and civilian neurosurgical history since they were significantly intertwined. Dr. Robinson also published a prior history of the personal lives of his family called "Two Ropes". Dr. Robinson retired from active neurosurgical practice in 2016 and currently resides with his wife in Hawaii.
