Is there a built-in way to get from a UIView to its UIViewController? I know you can get from UIViewController to its UIView

Updated version for swift 4 : Thanks for @Phil_M and @paul-slm

static func firstAvailableUIViewController(fromResponder responder: UIResponder) -> UIViewController? {
    func traverseResponderChainForUIViewController(responder: UIResponder) -> UIViewController? {
        if let nextResponder = responder.next {
            if let nextResp = nextResponder as? UIViewController {
                return nextResp
            } else {
                return traverseResponderChainForUIViewController(responder: nextResponder)
            }
        }
        return nil
    }

    return traverseResponderChainForUIViewController(responder: responder)
}
