Born Cornelius Richard Van Mattimore in Charlottesville, Virginia, on September 1, 1899 (some sources cite 1898 and 1900 as his year of birth), Richard Arlen
grew up in Minnesota. He joined the Royal Flying Corps in 1917 due to Canada and Britain's need of flyers during World War I. After a year of flying new planes
to the front lines, the war ended and so did Arlen's career in the RFC. After working in the Texas oil fields, by the early 1920s Arlen had made his was to Los
Angeles, where he took a messenger job. One day, while making a delivery to Paramount Studios, Arlen accidentally crashed into the gates. Paramount execs found
the young man handsome enough to be an actor, and Arlen's film career began. He was first cast in films in 1921 in walk-on parts, but by the mid-1920s Arlen's
star was rising in such dramas as The Coast of Folly (1925; with Gloria Swanson) and Padlocked (1926; with Lois Moran and Douglas Fairbanks Jr.).
His biggest role came when he was cast opposite flapper Clara Bow in the war romance Wings (1927; with Clara Bow and Charles 'Buddy' Rogers). Also in the
cast was Jobyna Ralston, well known for her comedic films with Harold Lloyd. After meeting on the set of Wings, Arlen and Ralston married in 1927. In the
early 1920s, Arlen had a brief first marriage that ended in divorce.
