One of the screen's best 'heavies' he was a staple in films of the 1930s, 40s, 50s and 60s. Always a tough guy, usually bad but occasionally a good guy, he was tall, very burly and stocky with a square rugged face, mean looking, menacing eyes and a gravelly voice. He was born in Columbia, South Carolina on Christmas Day December 25, 1902 and grew up in the south. He attended Wesleyan University where he was a football and basketball star. It was his agility on the football field that led to his acting career. He was discovered at a game and asked to audition for the Richard Dix film "Quarterback" (1926) in an uncredited role, his film debut. Bitten by the acting bug he enlisted at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts in New York and while attending joined a community theatre in Brooklyn. Soon he was debuting on Broadway and had a solid career on stage even writing a successful play "Rendezvous."
