Continuing with our look at the Archie Goodwin's from the radio Nero Wolfe series, this week, my favorite Archie actor - Gerald Mohr (right), formerly of the Adventures of Philip Marlowe radio show. Mohr had all the elements of a good Archie Goodwin as I think Rex Stout envisioned him.

The third of a four part look at the Archie Goodwin character and the actors who portrayed him on radio. We're now into the third series run of this radio detective - The New Adventures of Nero Wolfe. This run starred Sidney Greenstreet as the corpulent Wolfe. But the one year run of this series had no less than six actors portraying the detective's important sidekick - Archie Goodwin!
This week, you'll hear four of the six through clips with the fourth appearing in a complete episode - Larry Dobkin (right) was one of the longer Archie Goodwin's during this run.

Part II of our continuing look at Rex Stout's Archie Goodwin portrayals on the Nero Wolfe radio series. This week, Elliott Lewis (right) steps into the role of Goodwin with Francis X. Bushman as Wolfe. Lewis was one of radio's most versatile persons. He was an actor, both comedic as well as serious, producer, director and writer. This week's episode is from The Amazing Nero Wolfe!
