Dragnet – 1949-1957
Dragnet was a thirty-minute police drama featuring actual cases taken from the files of the Los Angeles
Police Department. Jack Webb directed Dragnet and also played Detective Sergeant Joe Friday, the star of
the show, who had remained a bachelor and still lived at home with his mother. It was one of the first radio
shows to break the silence against dramatizing sex crimes and child murders.
