Darby started acting at the age of six months old, and played child characters in “Hero’s Island”, “Son of Flubber” and “Mr. Ed”. He then appeared in a 90 minute episode of the Western series “Wagon Train”, and was intended to audition for a role in “The Sound of Music”, however, he became lost and wandered into the wrong line and ended up auditioning for “Daniel Boone”.
