Born in Jersey City, New Jersey, on March 24, 1910, character actor Richard Conte endured a hardscrabble youth yet harbored a desire for
acting from a young age. After he matured into adulthood, he studied acting at the Neighborhood Playhouse in New York and quickly became
a standout performer. Moving to Broadway in the late 1930s, Conte scored a number of successes on the legitimate stage, starring in such
plays as Night Music and Walk Into My Parlor under his real name, Nicholas Conte. In 1942 he left New York for Hollywood
upon signing a long-term contract with 20th Century Fox. His first film at Fox was Guadalcanal Diary (1943; with Lloyd Nolan
and William Bendix), in which Conte had a substantial role. During World War II, Conte starred in many war dramas; the best of these
is A Walk in the Sun (1945; with Dana Andrews and John Ireland).
