Der Schauspieler Paul Cavanagh studierte vor seiner Laufbahn beim Film Recht an der Universität von Cambridge und arbeitete danach als Advokat. Später ging er nach Kanada, wo er bei den Royal Canadian Mounties tätig war.

Schliesslich kehrte er nach England zurück, wo er zunächst als Advokat weiterarbeitete, ehe er durch unglückliche Umstände seine Ersparnisse verlor.

Daraufhin entschied er sich 1924, einen völlig neuen Weg zu gehen und Schauspieler zu werden. In den nächsten Jahren konnte er in vielen Theaterstücken mitwirken, u.a. am Broadway in "Scotland Yard" (29).

Beim Film debütierte er gegen Ende der Stummfilmära und er verkörperte in den kommenden Jahren oftmals den typischen englischen Gentleman in vielen bekannten Produktionen.

Zu seinen ersten Filmen gehören "Two Little Drummer Boys" (28), "Tesha" (28) und "The Runaway Princess" (29).

Die 40er und 50er Jahre boten ihm erneut zahlreiche Engagements, darunter auch eine Sherlock-Holmes-Filme mit Basil Rathbone und Nigel Bruce, wobei gegen Ende seiner Laufbahn das Fernsehen eine immer bedeutendere Rolle einnahm.

Zu seinen bekanntesten Filmen dieser Jahre zählen "Maisie Was a Lady" (41), "Passage from Hong Kong" (41), "The Gorilla Man" (43), "The Man in Half Moon Street" (45), "The Woman in Green" (45), "Night and Day" (46), "The Verdict" (46), "Ivy" (47), "Madame Bovary" (49), "Tales of Robin Hood" (51), "The Son of Dr. Jekyll" (51), "Charade" (53), "House of Wax" (53), "Casanova's Big Night" (54), "The Raid" (54), eine Episode der Serie "The Count of Monte Cristo: The Androids of Algol" (55), "The King's Thief" (55), eine Episode der Serie "Lassie: The Journey" (56), "Diane" (56), "She Devil" (57), eine Episode der Serie "Perry Mason: The Case of the Vagabond Vixen" (57) und "The Four Skulls of Jonathan Drake" (59).
