Craig Reynolds who played Ann Sheridan's love match Bruce 'Butch' Baeder had a short and tragic life. His first film was in 1929, but he was a rising young 'second lead' by the 1930's at Warner Bros. After 1940, he enlisted in the Marine Corps, fought in the battle of Guadalcanal, was wounded and received a Purple Heart.
In 1943, he married actress Barbara Pepper. Their marriage proved a loving one despite later financial hardships when both could only find sporadic film work. On stage in 1944, they appeared together in a modern version of "Lady Chatterly's Lover" at the Geary Theater in San Francisco. After only six years of marriage, tragically, 42-year-old Robinson was killed in October 1949 in Los Angeles in a motorcycle accident. He left a widow with two sons.
