Michael Shayne on Television
(1960-61) One-hour Miami detective series starring Richard Denning ("Mr. and Mrs. North") who was perfect casting for the red headed, Irish private detective, who had a taste for cognac, brawls and broads. Shayne had a voluptuous blond secretary named Lucy Hamilton (Patricia Donahue). Lucy's younger brother Dick Hamilton (Gary Clarke) sometimes got involved in Shayne's cases. Tim Rourke (Jerry Paris) was a reporter friend, and another friend was Miami chief of police Will Gentry (Herbert Rudley).
