kid parts, and then was sent TO
school. That he should like tho
theater was only natural and the
early training that he had in 1t
served to make him like it all the
more.
At seventeen, the actors first
prominent appearance was in a play
called "Artie." presented in New
York, and he felt fate was cruel to
him in having II fail, because he
had a good part. 1t was not until
1911 that Craven came into his own,
when he played the role Of James

The play ran for three years in
this country and for a year in Lon.
don. 1t was during the run OF this
piece that Craven wrote his first
play, TOO Many Cooks" and this
Craven later took to London.
1t ran for a season abroad. "Under
Fire" came next, and after that
Seven Changes" He dropped into
musical comedy in a piece called
"Going Up" and remained in It for
two years as the featured player.
Spite Corner" was the second
play from the actors pen and then
came his big hit in his own play,
