Early and personal life
Howarth, the son of comedian Bert Howarth, was born in 96 Mitchell Street, Lancashire, and he continued to school with the singer and actress Gracie Fields.
Howarth began selling theatre programmes at the Theatre Royal, Rochdale, as an infant, and at the age of twelve, he began performing juvenile roles on stage. He joined the Lancashire Fusiliers in 1914 and spent time in France and Belgium during World War I.
On July 25, 1929, he married Sarah E. "Betty" Murgatroyd at St Mary and St Peter Parish Church, Hull, East Riding of Yorkshire. The couple were married for 55 years before Howarth's death, and John Jr., a son, was born in 1930. Howarth bought his wife so much jewelry that she had to keep it in the bank, according to a story.
Travel and painting were two of his hobbies.
Career
After the First World War's outbreak, Howarth ran a small theater. He was a member of the Lancashire Fusiliers during the conflict. From 1935 to 1980, he ran his own theatre in Colwyn Bay, handling the bulk of the male roles himself due to the lack of men to act.
He toured the country in theatre performances where he met and married Betty in Hull in 1929. He also appeared in a number of films, including The Man in the White Suit (1951) and Hobson's Choice (1954).
Howarth made his Coronation Street debut in December 1960 in the first episode and then appeared in over 1,300 episodes until his final appearance on January 23, 1984, which was filmed in December 1983.
