Clifford Parker Robertson III (born September 9, 1925) is an United States Academy Award-winning actor with a career in films and television that spans over half a century. In addition to his Oscar and Emmy and several lifetime achievement awards from various film festivals, Robertson has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame at 6801 Hollywood Blvd. He was once married to actress Dina Merrill.
In 1977 Robertson learned that his name had been forged on a $10,000 check that had been due to him. He discovered that the forgery had been carried out by Columbia Pictures studio head David Begelman, and on reporting it, the result was one of the biggest Hollywood scandals of the 1970's. Robertson was subsequently blacklisted for several years before finally getting back into film in Brainstorm (1983 film) (1983).
