| Godfrey MacArthur Cambridge (February 26, 1933 - November 29, 1976) was an American comedian and actor, who was especially popular in the late 1960s and early 1970's as a regular guest on the Merv Griffin and other talk shows. He had originally received a scholarship to study medicine but had decided on a career in acting instead. Memorable film roles include Watermelon Man where he plays the lead character, a white bigot who one day wakes up and discovers his skin color has changed to black and The President's Analyst where he plays a depressed CIA agent. He perhaps reached his biggest audience in a series of very amusing television commercials for Jockey brand underwear. Cambridge died of a heart attack while on the set of the movie Victory at Entebbe in which he was scheduled to portray Idi Amin. It is possible that the often rotund Cambridge's habit of yo-yo dieting contributed to his early demise.
