edward g. robinson


what was his real name?

reply

Emmanuel Goldenberg

He agreed to the name change, as the studio demanded, if he could keep the "G", as to never forget his roots.

No studio had anything to do with him changing his name. He changed it about the same time he left acting school, but yes, he kept the "G" to remind him of who he really was.
