Fort Laramie (radio)

Fort Laramie was a U.S. radio program that aired Sundays on CBS from January 22 to October 28, 1956. This Western drama, produced and directed by Norman Macdonnell, depicted life at old Fort Laramie during the 19th century. The 40 episodes starred Raymond Burr as Lee Quince, captain of the cavalry; one year later, Burr became a television star as Perry Mason. The supporting regulars included Vic Perrin as Sgt. Gorse, Harry Bartell as the slightly green Lt. Seiberts, and Jack Moyles as Major Daggett. Heard on a more irregular basis were Howard McNear as Pliny the fort sutler, Sam Edwards as Trooper Harrison, and in a variety of roles, such actors as John Dehner, John McIntire, Virginia Gregg, James Nusser, Parley Baer, and Barney Phillips.
