Seymour Friedman

Seymour Friedman was born on Aug 17, 1917 in USA. Seymour Friedman's big-screen debut came with Trapped by Boston Blackie directed by Seymour Friedman in 1948.

Born in Detroit, Cambridge-educated Seymour Friedman entered films in 1937 as an assistant editor, eventually graduating to assistant director. After WW II service, he returned to the film industry as a director, mainly of routine, low-budget action films, many for Columbia Pictures, debuting with Traqués par Boston Blackie (1948). After his film career ended, Friedman, like many of his fellow B directors, went into the television industry. However, unlike them, it was as a production executive rather than as a director.
