Hollywood actor Cliff Robertson has died at the age of 88.
He played a young John F Kennedy in the biographical 1963 film PT-109 and won an Oscar in 1968 for his performance in Charly as a mentally disabled man.
Never a top leading man, Robertson remained a popular actor from the mid-1950s onwards. His later roles included the kindly Uncle Ben in the Spider-Man movies.
His secretary said he had died in New York state of natural causes.
"My father was a loving father, devoted friend, dedicated professional and honourable man," his daughter Stephanie Saunders said in a statement quoted by Associated Press news agency.
"He stood by his family, friends, and colleagues through good times and bad. He made a difference in all our lives and made our world a better place. We will all miss him terribly."
