He later moved on to director and directed almost 100 films, as well as producing five others, between 1915 and 1948. His brother, Eric St Clair, was a writer and actor. He directed most of Laurel and Hardy's later films at 20th Century Fox, and at least two of the Jones Family series at the same studio.

In 1950, he wanted to direct Buster Keaton in a television series, but ill health prevented him from directing again.He died on June 1, 1952, at age 55 and was interred at Mountain View Cemetery and Mausoleum in Altadena, California.
