U mladosti je studirao arhitekturu, prije nego što se 1904. okušao na pozornici u domovini. S vremenom je nastupao u Australiji i na Broadwayu, prije nego što je 1919. godine dobio svoj prvi filmski angažman. S vremenom se specijalizirao za dva tipa uloga - duševne bolesnike i osobe od autoriteta.

Imao je izuzetno buran privatni život, koji je 1941. godine ozbiljno uticao na njegovu karijeru, nakon što je seksualna orgija u njegovom domu postala predmetom suđenja za krivokletstvo.
