Early life
Bushell was born in Westerham, Kent and was educated at Magdalen College School, and then Hertford College, Oxford. After Oxford, he trained at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art and got his start on stage from Sir Gerald du Maurier, making his theatrical debut at the Adelphi Theatre in 1924.[1] He went to America in 1927 to act on stage. When the talkie version of Disraeli was to be made, he was put in the cast on the special recommendation of George Arliss.[2]
