Robert A. Hefner Jr. ("Bob Hefner") (June 2, 1907 - May 1987) was inducted into the Oklahoma Hall of Fame in 1973. He was born on June 2, 1907 to Eva & Robert A. Hefner in Beaumont, Texas. Only a few short months later (November 1907), the Hefner family decided to move to Ardmore, Oklahoma, where Junior would spend the majority of his childhood. Junior, a driven man himself, grew up in Carter County, which produced many legendary oil men: Wirt Franklin, Lloyd Noble, Jake L. Hamon, Edwin L. Cox, Frank W. Merrick and his son Ward S. Merrick, Charles B. Goddard, Leon Daube, Max Westheimer, and Walter Neustadt Sr. and Jr.
