   • He Was Born To Be A Star. Fate decided O’Connor’s profession before he was born. O’Connor’s parents were Vaudevillians—his mother was a horse rider and his father was an acrobat—and worked as traveling entertainers.
   • He Watched His Sister Perish. O’Connor encountered tragedy incredibly early in his life. When he was two, a car struck Donald and his seven-year-old sister Arlene while they were trying to cross the street.
   • His Family Fell Around Him. With the O'Connors still reeling from the loss of their little girl, even darker news came to them. Just weeks after the car accident, Donald's father was performing on stage when he had a fatal heart attack and collapsed.
   • His Mother Reacted Badly. The cavalcade of harrowing losses drove Donald's mother to the brink. Soon, she was terrifyingly protective of him, sometimes in bizarre ways.
