[edit] Career

After brief studies at the universities of Texas and Missouri and a period of work with regional theatrical groups, he moved to New York in 1910, where he became a member of the Dearborn Stock Company. A stage actor from his teens, he had his screen debut in 1915's The Final Judgement, a film of the Rolfe-Metro. Later he directed films for MGM and First National. During his career Carewe provided early screen exposure to such actors as Dolores Del Rio, Warner Baxter, Francis X. Bushman and Gary Cooper. Although he directed and produced a number of critically and financially successful pictures during the silent era, he was not fully able to make the transition to sound. After resorting to sound remakes of his earlier successes, and later to low-budget and religious films, he made his last feature in 1934.

[edit] Death

Carewe died from a heart ailment in his Hollywood apartment, and is buried at Hollywood Forever Cemetery.
