I would say Alfred Hitchcock.

Stanley Kubrick, hands down, end of sentence, period.

Excellent choice... what's your favorite Kubrick film?

2001: A Space Odyssey, hands down, end of sentence, period. It's the greatest film of all time imho.
My second favorite is A Clockwork Orange. How about you?

The Shining and Eyes Wide Shut are my favorite Kubrick films.

Good films, but not great like 2001 and Clockwork Orange imho.

It’s hard to say one. There are different genres. Hitchcock was great. I would also put John Ford and Frank Capra on the list.

Hitchcock was good, so was Steven Spielberg.

Kubrick

I can’t say there is one best director but I would put Frank Capra on the list.
