Clifford Parker "Cliff" Robertson III (September 9, 1923 – September 10, 2011) was an American actor with a film and television career that spanned half a century. Robertson portrayed a young John F. Kennedy in the 1963 film PT 109, and won the 1968 Academy Award for Best Actor for his role in the movie Charly. On television, he portrayed retired astronaut Buzz Aldrin in the 1976 adaptation of Aldrin's autobiographic Return to Earth, played a fictional character based on Director of Central Intelligence Richard Helms in the 1977 miniseries Washington: Behind Closed Doors, and portrayed Henry Ford in the 1987 Ford: The Man and the Machine. His last well-known film appearances were in 2002 through 2007 as Uncle Ben in the Spider-Man film trilogy.
Robertson was born on September 9, 1923 in La Jolla, California, the son of Clifford Parker Robertson, Jr. (1902–1968), and his first wife, the former Audrey Olga Willingham (1903-1925). His Texas-born father was described as "the idle heir to a tidy sum of ranching money". Robertson recalled that his father "was a very romantic figure—tall, handsome. He married four or five times, and between marriages he'd pop in to see me. He was a great raconteur, and he was always surrounded by sycophants who let him pick up the tab. During the Depression, he tapped the trust for $500,000, and six months later he was back for more." The actor's parents divorced when he was one, and Robertson's mother died of peritonitis a year later in El Paso, Texas at the age of 21. He was raised by his maternal grandmother, Mary Eleanor "Eleanora" Willingham (née Sawyer, 1875–1957), in California, and rarely saw his father. He graduated in 1941 from La Jolla High School, where he was known as "The Walking Phoenix". He served in the U.S. Merchant Marine in World War II before attending Antioch College (Ohio) and dropping out to work as a journalist for a short time.

Hai Naram Jaisi Ruhi Nani Maa
Kahaniyaan Sunati Pehliyaan Bujaati
Thapak Thapak Sulaati Nani Maa
Tumhi Ho Meri Lori Tumhi Meri Kahani
Tumhara Pyaar Bachpan Ki Ek Haseen Nishani
Tumhi Ne Di Thi Gudiya Jo Thi Meri Saheli
Tumhara Hi Tha Aangan Main Kal Thi Jis Mein Kheli
Tumhi Ne Tha Bataaya Hai Rang Kitne Sare
Tumhi Ne Tha Bataaya Hai Phool Kitne Pyaare
Tumhi Ne Tha Sikhaaya Badon Se Kaise Boloon
Tumhi Ne Tha Sikhaaya Dupatta Kaise Odhoon
Woh Pyaar Se Bulaati Woh Pyar Se Sikhaati
Woh Kuch Na Kuch Bataati Nani Maa

Tumhi Ne Di Thi Gudiya Jo Thi Meri Saheli
Tumhara Hi Tha Aangan Main Kal Thi Jis Mein Kheli
Teri Nani Maa Ko Bhi Sab Yaad Hai
Kal Tu Nanhi Si Bachchi Thi
Sharir Chulbuli Manmohini
Frock Pehne Baalon Mein Ribbon
Hasti Khilkhilati Khelti Muskuraati
Kabhi Mujhse Zid Karti Kabhi Mujhe Banaati
Din Bhar Shor Shararat Aur Shyaam Woh Tera
Mere God Mein Sir Rakna Aur
Ek Pal Mein So Jaana Yaad Aata Hai
Aaj Bhi Bahut Yaad Aata Hai
Tumhi Ne Mere Dil Mein Mohabbatein Hain Gholi
Tumhi Se To Suni Thi Jo Bolti Hoon Mein Boli
Tumhi Ne To Kaha Tha Jo Bolta Nain Hain
Hameshaa Yaad Rakhna Ke Zindagi Haseen Hain
Haseen Pyaari Boli Shahed Ke Jaise Meethi

Kahaniyaan Sunati Pehliyaan Bujaati
Thapak Thapak Sulaati Nani Maa
Tumhi Ho Meri Lori Tumhi Meri Kahani
Tumhara Pyaar Bachpan Ki Ek Haseen Nishani
Tumhi Ne Di Thi Gudiya Jo Thi Meri Saheli
