From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

James Seay (born 9 September 1914 in Pasadena, California – died 10 October 1992 in Capistrano Beach, California) was an American character actor who often played minor supporting roles as government officials of one kind or another.

Although it was a minor part not credited on-screen, his role in the film Miracle on 34th Street is one of his most visible, due to the film being a staple of Christmastime repeats on television.

Among his many credits, Seay appeared in minor roles in a couple of episodes of Adventures of Superman TV series: The Mind Machine (as a senator) and Jungle Devil (as an airplane pilot).
