Bernard Charles Hayward was born in Hampton Wick, England, to Charles Hayward and Emily Henriques. He arrived in Los Angeles around 1904 and began working as a photographer for the Hearst newspaper chain before trying his hand as a cinematographer in the early days of the motion picture industry. He died in 1918 of the Spanish flu in Los Angeles; his wife, screenwriter Lillie Hayward, had given birth to a daughter just weeks earlier.[1][2][3]
