KVLU to air private eye novels
Philip Marlowe, one of
fiction’s most intriguing
private eye characters,
will be introduced this
month by KVLU-FM (91.3)
beginning Thursday, at
6:30p.m.
“The Adventures of
Philip Marlowe,” a series
dramatizing four of the
best-known novels of the
late detective fiction artist
Raymond Chandler, will be
heard on KVLU-FM each
Thursday for 12 con-
secutive weeks, according
to Joanne Scarborough,
development director of
KVLU-FM.
The novels include “The
Big Sleep,” “The Lady in
the Lake,” “The High Win-
dow” and “The Little
Sister.” Each story will be
serialized in three half-
hour episodes, Scar-
borough said.
The series follows
private eye Marlowe
through the tough, corrupt
world of Hollywood and
southern California in the
1940s.
Marlowe is played by
American actor Ed Bishop,
best known through his ap-
pearances in the syn-
dicated series “U.F.O.,"
playing Commander
Straker, and the recent
television film, “S.O.S.
Titanic.”
Darrell Brogdon, KVLU-
FM program director, said
Chandler .became
fascinated with the
American speech patterns,
and did his research well
for the sleazy characters
which inhabit his novels.
“The stories have a real
sense of place,” Brogdon
said. They also have a
number of “adult
situations with coarse
language,” and are recom-
mended for mature audien-
lifestyle.
