He had seven siblings who were all child actors: Venetia Severn, Clifford Severn, Yvonne Severn, Ernest Severn, Christopher Severn, William Severn and Winston Severn.

Like his brothers Cliff and Winston, Raymond Severn played for the US national cricket team.[2]

Raymond Severn played Paul Muni's son in the 1939 film We Are Not Alone. Raymond and his brothers Ernest and Christopher all acted in the 1943 film The Man from Down Under.

He died in Granada Hills in 1994.
