New York-born Albert D'Agostino journeyed to Hollywood in the 1920s to seek work as an art director, and freelanced for many different studios as a set decorator and art department technician before he found his niche at RKO, where he stayed for the rest of his career. He was one of those responsible for the glossy but gritty look of RKO's productions, and he collaborated on or supervised the art direction of every RKO film.
