1. Clint Walker. Norman Eugene "Clint" Walker (1927–2018) was an American actor and singer. He was perhaps best known for his starring role as cowboy Cheyenne Bodie in the ABC/Warner Bros. western series Cheyenne from 1955-63. (Submitted on March 6, 2019, by Cosmos Mariner of Cape Canaveral, Florida.) 

2. Clint Walker (Internet Movie Database). Walker took a job as a security officer at the Sands Hotel in Las Vegas. It was there that he met quite a few Hollywood people who told him that his size, physique and good looks would serve him well in Hollywood and that he should go to Los Angeles and give it a try. He met actor Henry Wilcoxon, who introduced him to director Cecil B. DeMille, and Walker found himself playing the part of a Captain of the Guard in The Ten Commandments (1956).
