3He is credited with discovering Lucille Ball and actually did a cameo appearance or two on I Love Lucy (1951). He was also an executive with her production company, Desilu Productions. The last show he directed before he died a few months later was an episode of "I Love Lucy."

Graduated from St. Mary's University, Galveston. First acted on screen from 1915, primarily in short comedies for Imp and Vogue. From 1920-22 he worked as a serial and western director for Fox, then Universal (1922-26) and MGM (1926-32). He was best known for directing Buster Keaton's last two silent comedies, The Cameraman (1928) and Spite Marriage (1929). He continued to turn out comedies during the 1930s and 1940s, with gradually diminishing results. Near the end of his career he worked as a gag writer for Red Skelton.
