Lloyd attended high school and college in New York City. He began his acting career in theater, first at Eva Le Gallienne's Civic Repertory Theatre in New York then joining the original company of the Orson Welles-John Houseman Mercury Theatre. The Broadway role, playing Johnny Appleseed in "Everywhere I Roam," was selected as one of the ten best Broadway performances of the year.

Lloyd came to Hollywood to play a supporting part in Alfred Hitchcock's Saboteur (1942), starting a long friendship and professional association with Hitchcock. As the villainous Nazi spy "Fry", Lloyd got to fall off the Statue of Liberty in the film's climactic ending.

After a few more villainous film roles, Lloyd also worked behind the camera as an assistant on Lewis Milestone's Arch of Triumph (1948). A friend of John Garfield, he appeared with him in He Ran All the Way, Garfield's last film before the Hollywood blacklist ended his film career.

A marginal victim of the blacklist, Lloyd was rescued professionally by Hitchcock, who had previously used the actor in Saboteur and Spellbound. Hitchcock made Lloyd an associate producer and a director on the television series Alfred Hitchcock Presents in 1957.

He continued directing and producing episodic television throughout the 1960s and 1970s, being the first-season producer of Roald Dahl's Tales of the Unexpected in 1979. In the 1980s, Lloyd played Dr. Auschlander in the TV drama St. Elsewhere (1982) for six seasons. His numerous TV guest-star appearances include Murder, She Wrote, The Twilight Zone, Wiseguy, Star Trek: The Next Generation, Wings, The Practice, Seven Days and Civil Wars.

Lloyd's most recent part was in the film In Her Shoes (2005).

Norman Lloyd was also the name of a twentieth-century American composer and author. He wrote The Golden Encyclopedia of Music.
