Bob Woodward began his film work in the mid 1930s doubling for Buck Jones, Kermit Maynard, Dick Foran, and others, as well as doing various acting jobs and stunts in scores of films. And he also drove stages. For example - in CALIFORNIA MAIL (Warners, 1936), you can spot Woodward doubling hero Dick Foran and well as portraying a short-lived henchman who gets trampled by Foran's palomino Smoke/Smoky.

In the mid to late 1940s, he was frequently employed at Monogram and PRC, where he doubled Lash LaRue, Eddie Dean and Jimmy Wakely.

Woodward connected with Gene Autry and became a regular background performer and stuntman in various TV series and Columbia films from Gene's Flying A Production company. In addition, Woodward - and Sandy Sanders - were Autry's most frequent doubles.

Les Adams has him identified in about 100 films, which includes 93 westerns and 3 serials.
