Meet late Senator Bob Dole’s daughter Robin Dole

Dole’s sole child from his marriage to Phyllis Holden was a daughter named Robin Dole. Robin Dole has had a rather anonymous life, despite her father being a prominent politician. As far back as Robin can remember, she has been integral to her father’s life. This is likely attributable to the fact that she has spent most of her childhood in the Washington, District of Columbia area. Even though her parents split in 1972, she has never ceased loving and respecting her father as she did before. After receiving a degree in psychology from Virginia Tech, she worked in various other fields, including as a lobbyist and a secretary.
