Among his films are Ride the Pink Horse (1948), Mr. Peabody and the Mermaid (1948), Flamingo Road (1949), White Heat (1949), Sunset Boulevard (1950), A Place in the Sun (1951), How to Marry a Millionaire (1953) and Auntie Mame (1958). Although he continued making films during the 1960s he was more often seen on television, with guest roles in The Beverly Hillbillies and I Dream of Jeannie among his many performances.
He died in Santa Monica, California from liver disease.
Fred Clark has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame for his work in television, at 1713 Vine Street.
