Biography
[ edit ]
Walsh was born in New York as Albert Edward Walsh to Elizabeth T. Bruff, the daughter of Irish Catholic immigrants,[citation needed and Thomas W. Walsh, an Englishman. Walsh was part of Omega Gamma Delta in high school, as was his younger brother. Growing up in New York, Walsh was also a friend of the Barrymore family . John Barrymore recalled spending time reading in the Walsh family library as a youth. Later in life, Walsh lived in Palm Springs, California .[6] Simi Valley , Ventura County, California .
Film career
[ edit ]
Walsh was educated at Seton Hall College . He began acting in 1909, first as a stage actor in New York City and later as a film actor. In 1913 he changed his name to Raoul Walsh. In 1914 he became an assistant to D. W. Griffith and made his first full-length feature film as an actor, The Life of General Villa Pancho Villa playing the lead, and with actual ongoing battles filmed in progress as well as battle recreations. Walsh played Villa as a younger man.
Walsh as John Wilkes Booth
Walsh played John Wilkes Booth in Griffith's epic The Birth of a Nation Regeneration gangster film , shot on location in Manhattan 's Bowery district.
Walsh served as an officer in the United States Army during World War I . He later directed The Thief of Bagdad Douglas Fairbanks and Anna May Wong , and Laurence Stallings ' What Price Glory? Victor McLaglen and Dolores del Río .

In Sadie Thompson Gloria Swanson as a prostitute seeking a new life in Samoa, Walsh starred as Swanson's boyfriend in his first acting role since 1915; he also directed the film. He was then hired to direct and star in In Old Arizona O. Henry 's character the Cisco Kid . While on location for that film Walsh was in a car crash when a jackrabbit jumped through the windshield as he was driving through the desert; he lost his right eye as a result. He gave up the part and never acted again. Warner Baxter won an Oscar for the role Walsh was originally slated to play. Walsh would wear an eyepatch for the rest of his life.
In the early days of sound with Fox , Walsh directed the first widescreen spectacle, The Big Trail wagon train western shot on location, across the West. The movie starred John Wayne , then unknown, whom Walsh discovered as prop man named Marion Morrison, and he was renamed after the Revolutionary War general Mad Anthony Wayne ; Walsh happened to be reading a book about him at the time. Walsh directed The Bowery Wallace Beery , George Raft , Fay Wray and Pert Kelton ; the energetic movie recounts the story of Steve Brodie (Raft), supposedly the first man to jump off the Brooklyn Bridge and live to brag about it.
An undistinguished period followed with Paramount Pictures from 1935 to 1939, but Walsh's career rose to new heights after he moved to Warner Brothers , with The Roaring Twenties James Cagney and Humphrey Bogart ; Dark Command Roy Rogers (at Republic Pictures); They Drive By Night George Raft , Ann Sheridan , Ida Lupino and Bogart; High Sierra They Died with Their Boots On Errol Flynn as Custer ; The Strawberry Blonde Olivia de Havilland ; Manpower Edward G. Robinson , Marlene Dietrich and George Raft; and White Heat
He directed several films afterwards, including three with Clark Gable : The Tall Men The King and Four Queens Band of Angels [7]
