In an interview on Pat Sajak Weekend (2003), he talked about when he first expressed an interest in acting while in his early twenties. Initially, he was reluctant to tell his father what he wanted to do with his life and, when he finally confessed, his father was less than happy with his son's career choice. But the man had blessed his son by simply telling Robert he had to go with how he felt and follow his passion.

Steve Sohmer, the creator of Mancuso, FBI (1989) starring Robert Loggia, joined NBC in 1982 working directly with Stephen J. Cannell who created the series Stingray (1985) starring Nick Mancuso. Partially inspired by the work of Stephen J. Cannell and Nick Mancuso's work on "Stingray", Steve Sohmer created the character FBI agent Nick Mancuso for his novel "Favorite Son.".

The name of Robert Loggia's character, FBI agent Nick Mancuso, is also the name of the real life actor, best known for his title role in the NBC TV series Stingray (1985). This initially caused Nick Mancuso to protest the title character's name to his former network, without success. However, Nick Mancuso later learned that the name choice and character were partially inspired by his work on Stingray with Stephen J. Cannell. Through this connection Robert Loggia and Nick Mancuso became mutual admirers of each other's work and went on to work together in Wild Palms (1993), Real Gangsters (2013) and The Big Fat Stone (2014).
