Buchanan was born in Broadway in 1924. He made his film debut in the silent cinema, in 1917. Like spinal cancer, when he was 66 years old.

In 1938, Buchanan achieved the unusual feat of starring in the London stage musical "This'll Make You Whistle" while concurrently filming a movie version. The movie was released while the stage version was still running; thus the two productions competed with each other.

Other roles included ''Monte Carlo'', ''Smash and Grab'' (1937), ''The Gang's All Here'' (1939). He also produced several films including ''Happidrome'' (1943) and ''The Sky's the Limit'' (1938), which he also directed.
