BiographyRobert N. Skir (born 3 January 1961) is a writer best known for his work in television animation on shows including X-Men: The Animated Series, Gargoyles, Batman: The Animated Series, and Spider-Man: The Animated Series. He co-created and served as Story Editor on programs including Transformers: Beast Machines, Extreme Ghostbusters, Godzilla: The Series, and DinoSquad, and co-developed the series X-Men: Evolution. From 1991 to 2003, he frequently collaborated with Marty Isenberg.

His work on the series Beast Machines: Transformers was highly controversial, gaining favor among new viewers but polarizing many—but not all—longtime Transformers fans. Since then, the show has gained a cult following, consisting partially of fans who rejected the show when it first aired. His short story "Singularity Ablyss" was published in the anthology Transformers: Legends.

Skir's work on the Pocket Dragon Adventures episode "Festival of Lights" earned him a nomination for the Humanitas Award.

Skir has taught numerous classes in Animation Writing at UCLA's Department of Film, Television, and Digital Media.
