Starting his acting career in the 1950s, Delgado primarily had villainous roles in films produced by Premiere Productions and People's Pictures, and was billed as the leading actor in the 1960 film "Sa Mata ng Diyos" ("In the Eyes of God") along with Tessie Quintana, Leonor Vergara, Carlos Padilla, Jr. and child actor Aida Villegas.
