Robby Novak (born January 26, 2004)[1] is an American personality best known for portraying Kid President online and on television.[2] He is featured in a series of YouTube videos and in a television show, produced by actor Rainn Wilson's media company SoulPancake. The concept of Kid President was created by Novak's brother-in-law Brad Montague with the simple goal of uniting grown-ups and kids. Novak's first YouTube clip as Kid President, designed in collaboration with Montague, was uploaded in the summer of 2012 and subsequently published on SoulPancake's YouTube channel in October 2012.[3] Novak was featured in a television show on Hub Network called Kid President: Declaration of Awesome in the summer of 2014.[4]

Novak has osteogenesis imperfecta, which makes him susceptible to bone damage. He has experienced more than 70 fractures and has been a victim of bullying.[5][6][7][8][9]
