Robbie Robertson is a Canadian singer-songwriter and guitarist. He is the son of Alexander David Klegerman and Rosemarie Myke (Chrysler).
Robbie has said that “My mother was born and raised on the Six Nations Indian Reservation above Lake Erie. And my father was Jewish. How’s that for a combination?” His mother had Mohawk Native Canadian ancestry.
His father died when Robbie was a child. His mother later re-married a man named James Patrick Robertson, who Robbie took his surname from.
