He began his career as a member of his family's acrobatic troupe and performed in vaudeville beginning at age four, when he was touted as "the greatest child acrobat on the American stage." His family's troupe toured internationally, performing as a featured act with the Ringling Brothers circus.In Los Angeles, Malvern's first work in film came as a double for Mary Pickford, and he soon began performing stunts. His first major stunt appearance was doubling for Eileen Sedgwick in Beasts of Paradise (1923). In 1928, Malvern suffered serious injuries in a 70 feet (21 m) fall, and he retired from stunt performing, subsequently working as a producer for Universal Pictures and Monogram.
