Latar belakang
suntingLahir Oakland, California, Beckett mengawali kiprahnya di bisnis pertunjukan pada usia tiga tahun ketika keluarganya pindah ke Los Angeles dan seorang direktur casting mendengar dia bernyanyi dalam suatu kesempatan. Beckett berada di Cedars of Lebanon Hospital sedang membezuk ayahnya, yang sedang memulihkan sakit, dan menghibur ayahnya dengan bernyanyi lagu-lagu dalam Pig Latin. Perawat-perawat mendengarkan dia menyanyi dan mengajaknya tampil dari ruangan ke ruangan untuk menyanyi di hadapan para pasien. Seorang direktur casting mendapat kabar tentang anak itu, dan bicara kepada orangtuanya bahwa dia sedang mengerjakan film yang potensial. Beckett mengikuti audisi, dan dipercaya ikut bermain dalam Gallant Lady (1933), bersama Dickie Moore. Pada tahun yang sama, ayahnya meninggal. Pada 1934, Beckett bergabung dalam film Our Gang, di mana Moore tampil dari 1932 sampai dengan 1933.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11]
