About this listen

The Adventures of Ellery Queen is a radio detective program broadcast between June 1939 and May 1948. The program invited a panel of armchair detectives to solve cases during its broadcast. Adapting a technique that had been used earlier in the Author! Author! radio program, when an episode's script reached a point at which all of the clues had been revealed, the scripted portion stopped, and the panel was challenged to identify the culprit.

The main characters are:

Ellery Queen, the title character who is a private detective without official police affiliation. He was often called into cases by his father, a police inspector.

Richard Queen, Ellery Queen's father.

Nikki Porter, Ellery Queen's secretary.

Sergeant Velie, Inspector Queen's assistant.

Ellery Queen's Minute Mysteries program was broadcast between 1965 and 1967 as a radio filler. The episodes contained short one-minute cases.

Many of the episodes from the Ellery Queen radio programs are lost.
