In 1953, he joined the Air Force and while stationed at Biloxi in Mississippi, he acted in a play that he performed in with Betty Lou Bredemus. The two married in 1955 and their first child Eric Anthony was born in 1956. In 1957, the couple quit the air force and Walter was enrolled in Tulane University in New Orleans Louisiana. Walter joined Atlanta Academy Theater and Harrington Scenic and Lighting Studio when they moved their family from Atlanta to Georgia's Decatur in the year 1960. Walter and Betty Lou began producing a children's TV show in Decatur, Georgia called Bum Bum and His Buddies. They financed the production by themselves.
