Seymour went on to join the writing staff at Pathe, remaining at the studio until its absorption by RKO. His later credits included all three of Warner Bros.' Busby Berkeley musicals of 1933 (42nd Street, Gold Diggers of 1933, Footlight Parade). James Seymour's final effort was 20th Century Fox's King of Burlesque (1936).
