It was more accident than design. A student at USC on a football scholarship the movie industry was in his backyard. After an injury and the loss of said scholarship, he needed to work. Some of the studios need 'grunts'. Big strong guys to move props around and be go-fers. From prop guy to bit player it seemed his destiny. And eventually the bit parts got bigger and the rest is history.
