Broomfield was from Omaha, Nebraska. During a three day Smart Set Company production in Omaha he worked as chorus boy and met producers Salem Tutt Whitney and J. Tutt, known as the Tutt Brothers. Impressed with Bloomfield and at the urging of his uncle, the brothers took him with them to Broadway in New York City. While there he was a student of dancer Ted Shawn. It was also during this time he met Aurora Greeley who became his long term dancing partner.
He was photographed with the Ubangi Club dancers in 1937. California State University Northridge has a photograph of him in costume.
