Who was the first "Robin, the Boy Wonder"? No, not Burt Ward, but this popular, curly-haired child actor of the 1940s. In addition to being in the first "Batman" film, he appeared in many other major films, mostly at Warner Brothers. In almost all of these films, he played the hero as a boy, "growing up" to be, among others, James Cagney in La glorieuse parade (1942), Gary Cooper in Vainqueur du destin (1942) and Ronald Reagan in Crimes sans châtiment (1942). Not much is known of him after he dropped out of acting towards the end of the decade.
