At age 17, Jack Haley went to Philadelphia and started working at the Philadelphia Club. He operated the switchboard and was a bellhop. In his downtime, he took dance lessons. In 1924, Haley started on Broadway at the Palace Theatre. Haley eventually came to Hollywood and made twenty pictures between 1932 and 1938. He was cast as the Tin Woodman in the Wizard of Oz.
Haley's son Jack Jr married Judy's Garland daughter Liza Minnelli in 1974.
