Product Details

Starring Jeff Chandler (12 half-hour episodes / 6 hours via digital download)

Michael Shayne, "the reckless, red-headed Irishman" was a popular hard-boiled detective created by crime novelist Brett Halliday. Mike settled in Miami just after WWII, making crime pay by fighting it with a license and an attitude. Like Mike Hammer and Philip Marlowe, Shayne was a loner. The back-story on Mike is that he was happily married, but suddenly his wife is tragically murdered, and that hit him hard. Grief-stricken, Shayne loses himself in his work as a private eye, prowling the dark streets of Miami seeking out his style of revenge on injustice. The radio version of Mike's exploits debuted as “Michael Shayne, Private Detective” in the fall of 1944 with Wally Maher in the title role. In 1948, Mutual radio debuted “The New Adventures of Michael Shayne” starring movie star Jeff Chandler with his adventures taking place in New Orleans. Simultaneously in 1948, Chandler was playing bashful Biologist Philip Boynton, the love interest on “Our Miss Brooks”, proving he could handle comedy as well as dramatic roles. Others to portray Shayne on radio included Wally Maher, Donald Curtis and Robert Sterling. Richard Denning, who had starred for years on the radio comedy series “My Favorite Husband” opposite Lucille Ball, portrayed Mike Shayne in a 1960’s TV version.
