Robert McKim (26 August, 1886 – 4 June, 1927), was an American actor of the silent era. He appeared in 99 films between 1915 and 1927. He is best remembered for playing the arch villain opposite Douglas Fairbanks's Zorro in The Mark of Zorro in 1920. McKim also starred with Lon Chaney in the 1923 silent version of All The Brothers Were Valiant. One of his last roles was again as a villain in the unfinished silent The Mysterious Island starring Lionel Barrymore based on Jules Verne's novel. Though McKim shot silent sequences in 1927 the film wasn't released until 1929. McKim was uncredited, though he's recognizable in a lot of the footage, and by that time had been dead for two years.

He was born in San Francisco, California and died in Hollywood, California from a cerebral hemorrhage.
