MINI BIO:

American actor with narrowed eyes, close-cropped hair, and wolfish smile. His laconic voice made him an ideal choice to portray Chandler's Philip Marlowe on radio, but he played mostly charming villains in (largely co-feature) films, apart from a stint as the gentleman crook, The Lone Wolf, in the 1940s. Died from a heart attack while in Sweden.

Narrator: Montana in the '80s - the cattleman was king, his herds grazed a hundred thousand square miles of pasture. There was so much room that fertile range land was going to waste - but not for long. Shepherds and their sheep sought the lush green pasture of the north.
