Moran was active in vaudeville before he began performing in films at Nestor Studios in 1909.[2] He transcended the silent film era of motion pictures to the talkies. Moran appeared in more than 460 films, directed 109 and wrote for 92 between 1912 and 1935. He was born in Chicago, Illinois,[citation needed] and was often paired with actor Eddie Lyons. The two made one- and two-reel comedic films together for 10 years.[3] Moran retired from films in 1936.[2]

Moran's wife, Esther, sued him for divorce, but her attorneys asked that the suit be dismissed in September 1922. The couple agreed to an out-of-court settlement.[4] He died from a heart ailment on April 24, 1961, in Woodland Hills, California. He is buried in San Fernando Mission Cemetery.[5]
