TOUGH KID-The Life and Films of Frankie Darro

TOUGH KID-THE LIFE AND TIMES OF FRANKIE DARRO is a story of stardom to skid row. Darro was one of the few child actors to successfully make the transition to young adult roles. As a popular child actor he was featured in numerous silent movies and made the transition to sound films with ease.



























Darro appeared with such stars of the the Golden Age of Hollywood as Bette Davis, The Marx Bros., James Cagney and Clark Gable. The book contains many rare photos and the most complete filmography ever published.

John Gloske was a friend of Frankie Darro's during the final four years of the actors life.
