American director, billed early in his career as' Al' Santell. A former architect (graduate of Los Angeles University) he began in the movie industry in 1914 as a general factotum at the Lubinville Studio in Philadelphia before working his way up the ladder to director/scenarist in which capacity he handled one- and two-reel short comedy subjects for Mack Sennett, Hal Roach and at Kalem.

1918

Following a brief spell in the army (1918-19) he advanced to supervising manager at Universal and was given his own comedy series (the "Alfred Santell Comedies") which starred a trained chimp named Joe Martin!

One of his best talkies was an early entry into the "Dr. Kildare" cycle (that was before MGM picked up the option and made millions from the franchise !).

1937

This was Internes Can't Take Money (1937), a slickly made box-office hit with Joel McCrea as the good doc and Barbara Stanwyck as an ex-convict mother. The New York Times critic described Santell's direction as "a blend of [Alfred Hitchcock] suspense and American verve".
