Di New York tahun 1901,[2] Walthall mendapatkan peran dalam pertunjukan Under Southern Skies oleh Charlotte Blair Parker. Dia tampil selama tiga tahun, di New York dan pentas kelilingnya.[4] Bersama perusahaan Henry Miller dia memperoleh pengakuan di pertunjukan-pertunjukan Teater Broadway antara lain melalui pertunjukan Pippa Passes, The Only Way dan karya William Vaughn Moody, The Great Divide (1906–08).[2][5] Rekan sesama pemerannya, James Kirkwood memperkenalkan Walthall kepada D. W. Griffith,[4] dan pada hasilnya, Walthall boleh bergabung di Biograph Company.[3]

Kariernya di perfilman dimulai sejak 1909 di Biograph Studios New York dengan peran utama dalam film A Convict's Sacrifice. Film ini juga menampilkan James Kirkwood, dan diarahkan oleh D.W. Griffith. Sebagaimana industri yang sedang bertumbuh dan meningkat popularitasnya, Griffith muncul sebagai sutradara dan Walthall ditemukan olehnya sebagai andalan di perusahaanGriffith, yang kadang-kadang berkarya bersama seperti halnya Owen Moore, Kate Bruce, Lillian dan Dorothy Gish, Mae Marsh, Bobby Harron, Jack dan Mary Pickford. Dia kemudian mengikuti kepindahan Griffith dari New York's Biograph ke California's Reliance-Majestic Studios tahun 1913. Setelah beberapa bulan bersama Reliance, dia bergabung dengan Pathé untuk kurun waktu yang singkat.[3]

Dia memutuskan untuk mengelola bisnis dan membentuk The Union Feature Film Company, perusahaan pertama yang dikembangkan yang seluruhnya memproduksi film-film panjang. Percobaannya kurang menuai sukses sayangnya, dan dia kembali bekerja sama dengan perusahaan Griffith.[3]

Diberi kesempatan mengerjakan film-film pendek di awal tahun, Walthall terkadang dia tampil dalam belasan film setiap tahun. Keberadaannya mendapatkan perhatian nasional pada tahun 1915 atas perannya sebagai Kolonel Ben Cameron dalam film arahan Griffith yang sangat berpengaruh dan kontroversial, berjudul The Birth of a Nation.

Dia berperan sebagai Manette dalam A Tale of Two Cities (1935), dibintangi Ronald Colman. Tahun 1936 dia tampil sebagai Marcel dalam film The Devil-Doll. Dia mengalami sakit parah selama film terkhirnya, Clipper. Frank Capra menginginkan Walthall untuk berperan sebagai The High Lama dalam filmnya Lost Horizon tahun 1937.[4][6][7]
