Born in Brno (present-day Czech Republic), Stricker graduated from high school at the technical college. He entered the service of the Imperial Royal Austrian State Railways, where he was active in management.

He was elected at the 1919 Austrian Constitutional Assembly election as the only representative of the Jewish National Party, founded in 1907 under the Austro-Hungarian Empire, which never again succeeded in sending a representative to the Austrian Parliament.

In addition, Stricker was a Zionist activist, and for many years was a board member of the Israelitische Kultusgemeinde Wien. He was the publisher of the Jewish weekly magazine Die Neue Welt, established in 1926 as a replacement for the defunct Zionist journal Die Welt.^[1]

After the Anschluss, Robert Stricker was sent to Dachau, but was eventually released. In 1942 he was sent to Theresienstadt, and is reported to have been killed in 1944 in Auschwitz.^[2]
