Born Carmen Orrico in Brooklyn on August 5, 1935, actor John Saxon developed a taste for the theater quite young, and he took dramatics
classes while in high school. He also modeled briefly during this time. In 1953, Saxon was offered a Universal-International Studios contract,
so he left New York for Hollywood. Universal groomed Saxon for stardom by putting him through the rigors of the studio system, taking acting
classes for nearly two years. His first acting assignment came in the form of a bit part in the Judy Holliday comedy It Should Happen to
You (1954), and he also had a small role in A Star is Born (1954; with Judy Garland). His breakthrough film role was in the teen
crime drama Running Wild (1955; with Mamie Van Doren and William
Campbell). During this period, he also worked in television, making guest appearances on such television programs as Medic and
General Electric Theatre.
