After graduating from Columbia University School of Journalism,[1] Sennwald was hired as a reporter for The New York Times in 1930.
As the film critic Mordaunt Hall gave up his post in October 1934, Sennwald became his successor.
[7] Sennwald had an appointment with his ex-wife Yvonne Beaudray and did not appear, which is why she went to see him, only to find him dead in the ruins of his home.
