Roger Clinton was born in Yell County, Arkansas, to Allen W. Clinton (August 26, 1880 — June 14, 1965) and Eula Cornwell (May 29, 1882 — October 10, 1975).
He was the first stepfather of Bill Clinton, former President of the United States. Clinton was an owner of the local Buick dealership, and "a handsome, hell-raising, twice-divorced man from Hot Springs, Arkansas". Roger Clinton and his family lived at the south end of Hope.
Eventually Clinton sold the Buick dealership and moved, with his family, to a four hundred-acre farm a few miles west of Hot Springs.
After a year or so on the farm, around 1955, they moved into Hot Springs. Roger Clinton was referred to as "Daddy" in Bill Clinton"s presidential memoir My Life.
