Robert William Lamm (born October 13, 1944) is an American keyboardist, singer and songwriter who came to fame as a founding member of the pop rock band Chicago.

==Biography==
Lamm was born on October 13, 1944, in Brooklyn, New York, and moved with his family to Chicago, Illinois, when he was 15 years old. His parents had a collection of jazz records, which were an early influence on him. At his church, he performed in the boys' and men's choir. He studied art in high school, particularly drawing and painting, but changed direction in college by enrolling in the music program at Roosevelt University in Chicago.〔 In a 2003 interview, Lamm said, "My first musical training came as a member of the choir at Grace Episcopal Church, Brooklyn Heights, New York. It was a very good choir (Harry Chapin and members of his band were also in this choir at around the same time). It exposed me to some of the great sacred music from the Middle Ages, right up through Bach and into some of the 20th Century composers."〔Interview with musician Jim Newsom for ''PortFolio Weekly'', a Virginia regional magazine of news, opinion, arts and culture, July 15, 2003〕
Lamm formed a trio with Gerry Beckley of the band America and Carl Wilson of The Beach Boys. After Wilson's death from lung cancer in February 1998, an album was released entitled ''Like a Brother'' (2000).
Apart from his involvement with Chicago, Lamm has recorded a number of solo albums, from his 1974 debut solo LP entitled Skinny Boy to the present. He has been a guest lecturer on music production at Stanford University. In 2012, he lectured at New York University on the subject of songwriting.
