. He emigrated to the United States in 1910, with a company headed by Gertrude Elliott. Remaining in the country, he acted in stock theater in Hartford, Indianapolis, and other cities, billed initially as Pat Creighton Hale.

He eventually became known simply as Creighton Hale, although the derivation of "Creighton" remains unknown. Making his screen debut in '' The Exploits of Elaine'' (1914), Hale had prominent supporting roles in films like D.W. Griffith's '' Way Down East'', '' Orphans of the Storm'', and '' The Idol Dancer'', and later starred in such films as '' The Marriage Circle'', '' Seven Footprints to Satan'' and '' The Cat and the Canary''. Regarding the latter, '' Picture Show'' wrote of Hale's performance, "He makes no attempt to be impressive. He is just natural." It was thought that in 1923 Hale starred in an early pornographic "stag" film ''On the Beach'' (a.k.a. ''Getting His Goat'' and ''The Goat Man''). In the film, three nude women agree to have sex with him, but only through a hole in a fence. Photographs of the scene clearly show that the man in the film is not Hale, but is another actor who also wore glasses. When talkies came about, Hale's career declined. He made several appearances in Hal Roach's ''

Personal life

Hale's two sons, Creighton Hale Jr. and Robert Lowe Hale, from his first marriage to Victoire Lowe, were adopted by Lowe's second husband, actor John Miljan. After his divorce, Hale married Kathleen Bering in Los Angeles in 1931. Hale's sister-in-law, Isabelle Lowe, was both an accomplished stage actress and a published author and aspiring playwright. She and Hale performed together at least twice during the early 1920s—co-starring in revivals of Rida Johnson Young's ''Little Old New York'' and A.E. Thomas's ''Just Suppose''—and co-authored two never-produced plays. Hale died at the Motion Picture Country Home on August 9, 1965, at age 83. In accordance with his wishes, no funeral service was held, his remains were cremated at Chapel of the Pines, and his ashes were brought to rest at Duncans Mills Cemetery in
