He managed a brewery and, to escape boredom, took acting lessons. His stage debut was as a murderer in a 1902 production of "Sherlock Holmes". From then on he appeared in numerous plays in England the US, working through most of the 1930s with the Lunts at the Theatre Guild. His parts ranged from musical comedy to Shakespeare. His film debut, aged 62 and weight nearly 300 pounds, was as Kasper Guttman in "The Maltese Falcon" (1941). He joined Peter Lorre in eight more movies after that. In eight years time he made twenty-four films, all the while beset by diabetes and Bright's disease. In 1949 he retired from cinema, and four years later he died at 75.
