He was born in Brooklyn, New York, to William P.Chambers (1827 - 1911), a famous lawyer, and Caroline Chambers (néeBoughton), a direct descendant of Roger Williams, the founder of Providence,Rhode Island. Robert's brother was Walter Boughton Chambers, the worldfamous architect. Robert was first educated at the the Brooklyn PolytechnicInstitute,and then entered the Art Students' League at around the age of twenty,where the artist Charles Dana Gibson was his fellow student.
