Hickman first gained fame as a child actor during the late 1930s and 1940s, appearing in The Grapes of Wrath and The Human Comedy, among many others. He also made a featured appearance in the 1942 Our Gang comedy Going to Press. After spending his entire childhood as an actor, Hickman retred from entertainment to enter a monastery in 1951, only to return to Hollywood just over a year later. He continued acting, but received fewer roles than he had in the peak of his career. He became a television executive and an acting coach, and would eventually become a voice actor for Hanna-Barbera Productions towards the end of his five-decade career in motion pictures.
