Raymond Burr was best known for his roles in the television series Perry Mason and Ironside. He also won acclaim for his villainous role in Alfred Hitchcock’s film Rear Window. One thing that was constant in many of his roles is that he played a character with tremendous authority - whether you rooted for him or against him.
Yet, behind the tough guy façade, Raymond Burr actually had a rather troubled life. In fact, Raymond Burr lived his secret life in excruciating pain. He was homosexual and as was the norm for many actors of his generation, he had to keep this a well-guarded secret. Any revelation of his sexuality, whether by himself or others would likely ruin his career.
But that wasn’t the only secret he had and behind the dignity and fortitude that his characters exemplified, he had to hide his vulnerabilities. On the outside, this didn’t seem like a problem. But on the inside having to live a secret life caused him to feel immense pain.
Yet he persisted and he also paved the way for many actors that came after him. His acting career and perhaps even his personal life can serve as an inspiration to anyone. FactsVerse is proud to bring you his biopic.
So how did Raymond Burr get his start in life? How did he become such a successful actor and what were the secrets he kept?
