Early life and career edit

Reynolds was born in Anaheim, California, in 1907, the son of Leila Maybelle (née Goold) and Oscar Davenport Enfield.[3] Reynolds enjoyed a film career spanning the 1930s and 1940s, although the majority of his roles occurred during the first decade of his career.

In 1933 the actor signed with Universal Pictures, playing supporting roles in features and a Buck Jones serial. During this period he was billed as Hugh Enfield. The serial unit gave him a starring role in the 1934 version of The Perils of Pauline, billing him as Robert Allen.

After his tenure with Universal, he appeared in three features for Paramount Pictures in 1935 before being signed by Warner Brothers that same year. Warners rechristened him Craig Reynolds and groomed him as a rising star. He played second leads and featured roles in "A" pictures, and leads in "B" pictures. It is for these 27 Warner films that Craig Reynolds is best known.

After his Warner contract ran out, Reynolds kept busy freelancing for other studios including Columbia, Republic, Monogram, and PRC. He interrupted his career to enlist in the armed forces during World War II, and he was awarded a Purple Heart, then released from military service. He resumed his career in 1944 and worked in occasional features for the next five years. He died in October 1949, age 42, in an accident while riding a motor scooter in Los Angeles.[4]

Personal life edit

He married actress Barbara Pepper in 1943, with whom he had two sons, John and Dennis. After his death in 1949, she never remarried.
