He was born in Goshen, Indiana in 1876 and began working as a clerk in a publishing firm. He began acting on stage in Chicago in 1897 in Damon and Pythias.

In 1907, he married Terry, who was thirty years his senior. The couple separated in 1910 but there is no record of divorce. In fact he is listed as living with Ellen at Smallhythe in the 1911 Census.
