He returned to picture-making on a more regular basis in the mid-teens, remaining in Hollywood until his retirement in 1947. On both sides of the talkie revolution, Shumway was most gainfully employed in Westerns and serials, switching from comparative heroics to villainy after the movies learned to talk. "Lee Shumway" may well be the only actor to have ever appeared with both "Bela Lugosi" (1935's "Mystery of Mr. Wong") and "Lou Gehrig" (1938's "Rawhide"). ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
