CLIFF ROBERTSON:
The Man Who
Portrays JFK
This underrated actor got his first job at seven and
once lived for three months in a car; but he and the
President have one thing in common they're
both seafaring men By PEER J. OPPENHEIMER
President KENNEDY insisted on '
three conditions before he gave
Warner Brothers the right to
make a movie of "PT 109," the
book about his naval exploits dur
ing World War II :
1. Any royalties accruing to him must
go to the men of the original PT 109,
or their families; 2. The actor who plays
Kennedy must refrain from imitating
him in any way; 3. The President must
approve the actor who portrays him.
Among those considered for the prize
role were some of Hollywood's most-in-demand
actors, including Warren Beatty .
and Jeffrey Hunter. But the part finally
went to Cliff Robertson and it seems like
ly to bring him the recognition that has
eluded him for so long.
"Even before the picture was released,
there was great interest in me from all
over the world," Cliff said. "Offers have
been pouring in like mad."
The President's approval of Robertson
obviously didn't hinge on any similarity
in their childhoods. For all practical pur
poses. Cliff was an orphan. His mother
died of a ruptured appendix when he was
two. He is vague about his father's where
abouts thereafter, but apparently he rare
ly saw him.
Cliff was raised in La Jolla, Calif., by
his grandmother. He went to work at sev
en, mowing lawns for 251 an hour. At
nine, he got a job as door-to-door magazine
salesman and within six months built up
the largest circulation in the county.
At 12, Cliff switched to a still more prof
itable newspaper route, and a couple of
years later he further increased his in
come by preserving appendixes at a clinic
where his grandmother worked as a nurse.
But Cliff's next money-making scheme
1 X family Wrtkly, July H. 1963
ended in disaster. He and a partner
both 16 invested their savings in a fish
ing skiff. They went out at 4 every
morning to catch lobsters and got back
just before school started. It proved prof
itable till they smashed their boat to bits
on the rocky coast
Nevertheless, Cliff's appetite for the sea
was whetted, and he talked his buddy into
driving to San Francisco the day after
they graduated from high school to sign
up as merchant seamen. He also talked his
buddy's father out of his car, which wt :
to provide more than transportation.
"We had counted on waiting a couple of
days to find a ship. It took us three
months," Cliff remembers. They used the
sedan as their hotel room, washed and
shaved in a nearby gasoline station, and
ate food wherever they could get it
When Cliff's pal was signed up before
him, the car was taken back to La Jolla,
and Cliff was deprived of his sleeping
accommodations. "1 spent the nights on the
docks, spread out between crates," he re
calls. Fortunately he was able to sign up
on the freighter Admiral Cole the follow
ing week.
ONE sunny Sunday morning a few
weeks later, the ship was in Philippine
waters and Cliff was standing watch. He
observed with interest a huge four-engine
seaplane lumbering closer and closer.
Soon it was almost directly overhead. To
Cliff's surprise, the bomb bays opened and
bombs hurtled toward the ship.
The date was Dec 7, 1941.
"We didn't know that Pearl Harbor was
being attacked simultaneously," Cliff said.
"Our radioman was still in bed. On a
small steamer, you don't always have 24
hour radio watch.
"The ship was hit and listing heavily as
the plane came back again and again
