He was born in Melbourne to merchant William Munro Campbell and Christina Matheson. He grew up in Portland from the age of eight, and was an apprentice grocer before entering the family business. On 21 January 1880 he married Harriett Jarrett, with whom he had three children; he would later remarry on 9 June 1920, to Ethel May Waddell. In 1906 he won a by-election for the Victorian Legislative Assembly seat of Glenelg. A Liberal, he was a minister without portfolio in the Nationalist government from 1918 to 1920. He lost his seat to a Labor candidate in 1920 and was unsuccessful in attempting to regain it in 1921. Campbell died at St Kilda in 1921.
