The Adventures of Philip Marlowe brought a voice to the hard-boiled detective created by Raymond Chandler and made popular in his series of best-selling books. Marlowe refined the classic type by being a chess player and classical music lover while maintaining his cynical, no-nonsense approach.

The series first aired on NBC in 1947 featuring Van Heflin in the starring role but lasted only a few months. CBS revived the program a year later with Gerald Mohr playing Marlowe. The revamped incarnation proved a hit with listeners and provided weekly broadcasts through the summer of 1951. By 1949, it had become the most popular show on radio.
