Agnes Moorehead was the voice of his housekeeper Marilly. The program was sponsored by Rinso and later Noxzema. Barrymore is said to have written the program's theme song.

Who says that insurance investigation and adjusting isn't exciting?



For over twelve years, from 1949 through 1962 (including a one year hiatus in 1954-1955), this radio series recounted the cases "the man with the action-packed expense account, America’s fabulous freelance insurance investigator, Johnny Dollar". Johnny was an accomplished 'padder' of his expense account. The name of the show derives from the fact that he closed each show by totaling his expense account, and signing it "End of report... Yours Truly, Johnny Dollar".  For a while in the 1950s, the show was broadcast in 5 15 minute parts, one every week night.  This five part episode aired the week of October 3, 1955.  Johnny travels to visit a dying inmate in Sing Sing prison.
