Fue un director de cine estadounidense de la era del cine mudo. Dirigió 39 películas entre 1917 y 1937. Al principio de su carrera, Willat trabajó como director de fotografía en varias películas. wiki

Según Darwin Porter, Irvin Willat era un director tiránico, al punto que Chales Starrett llegó a atizarle un puñetazo en la nariz durante el rodaje de Damaged Love:

Starrett caught Hughes’ eye when he appeared in “Damaged Love” with Hughes’ former flame, June Collyer. Directing this 1931 film was Irvin Willat, who was the ex-husband of Hughes’ current flame and live-in girlfriend, Billie Dove. Irvin was a tyrannical director and, according to Porter, Starrett punched him in the nose. That endeared him to Hughes who signed him to star in “The Age Of Love” opposite Dove. stevesomething
