American radio mystery series (1945–1947)
Hercule Poirot is an American radio mystery drama that began on February 22, 1945, on Mutual and ended on November 21, 1947 on CBS.[1] Harold Huber portrayed Hercule Poirot, the fictional Belgian detective who was featured in Agatha Christie's novels.[1] Christie chose Huber for the role after she saw him in the film Charlie Chan at Monte Carlo (1937).[2] In the series, Poirot was based in New York, rather than the London setting found in the books. Many of the episodes had Poirot "involved in substantive international capers".[3]: 18
