Loman was discovered by Fred Karno and joined his troupe, appearing alongside Charlie Chaplin and Stan Laurel.[1] He then became the straight man in a double act, Lowe and Loman, which lasted for 25 years.[1]
After a period of unemployment, he took up the position of stage doorman at the Criterion Theatre in London, remaining there for over 18 years.[1]
He appeared as a castaway on the BBC Radio programme Desert Island Discs on 14 April 1973,[1] at age 92, having worked in the theatre for 80 years.
He was awarded the Society of London Theatre Special Award (one of the Laurence Olivier Awards) in 1977.[2]
