Bigger was a native of Pittsburgh, PA; he worked in Seattle between 1909-1910. According to the U.S. Census of 1910, Bigger moved in that year from a residential hotel operated by William Shanks. He does not appear in the Seattle city directory after 1910, and probably left the city.

His father was Thomas W. Bigger, who in 1918 worked in the Epler Block, Seattle, WA.
