As a schoolboy growing up in Sacramento, Robert Warwick sang in his church choir. Encouraged to set one's cap for music as a vocation, Warwick studied in Paris seeking an operatic rush.

... present to concealment, starring in such films as A Stylish Othello and Alias Jimmy Valentine and at one bring up heading his own production company.
