Synopsis:

Richard Diamond Private Detective was on of the many detective shows on Radio. The show began in April 24, 1949 and lasted till September 20, 1953. The show appeared on three of the four radio Networks NBC, ABC, and CBS in that order.

Richard Diamond, played by Dick Powell, was a rough gumshoe who would often get knocked on the head with a revolver butt or other items. His nemesis on the police force was Lt Levinson who often accepted Diamond's help reluctantly. Levinson would always claim to get stomach trouble whenever Diamond would call him and would always take a bicarbonate to settle his aching stomach. Although they always seem at odds with each oather, Diamond and Levinson were really friends.

Diamond had a girlfriend named Helen Asher who adored him and was always hinting at marriage to the guy. Diamond being the free spirit that he was would try to avoid that at every turn.

He was known as the singing Dick because at the end of every show he would serenade his secretary in song.

Richard Diamond was one of the radio shows which successfully moved to television with David Janssen, later of the Fugitive fame, in the Title role of Richard Diamond. The opening scene of the television show often featured the long lovely legs of Mary Tyler Moore, who went on to fame in the Dick Van Dyke Show and The Mary Tyler Moore Show.

Dick Powell starred in two famous radio series: as "Richard Diamond, Private Detective" in the series of the same name and as "Richard Rogue" in "Rogue's Gallery.
