Episode 146 – Old Haunts of New Orleans (New Adventures of Michael Shayne)

Even as he played bashful biology teacher Mr. Boynton on Our Miss Brooks, Jeff Chandler voiced the two-fisted tough guy shamus Michael Shayne. The hard-boiled intensity Chandler brought to the role made his short tenure as Shayne a memorable run. His versatility as an actor made him believable as both a timid teacher and a gritty, cynical private eye. We’ll hear Chandler as Shayne in a pair of mysteries set in New Orleans: “The Case of the Wandering Fingerprints” and “The Case of the Phantom Gun.”
