Woodes Rogers (ca. 1679 â 15 July 1732) was an English sea captain and privateer and, later, the first Royal Governor of the Bahamas. He is known as the captain of the vessel that rescued marooned Alexander Selkirk, whose plight is generally believed to have inspired Daniel Defoe's Robinson Crusoe.
An icon in the golden age of Hollywood, Rogers, who passed in 1998, was a film star -- with a staggering 100-plus films to his credit -- and host of both television and radio programs.
