Trivia
Blacklisted during the 1950s from his job as a radio personality because he was accused of being a member of several alleged Communist-front groups. He successfully sued Aware, Inc., which screened actors on behalf of the networks for supposed ties to Communism. His suit was largely responsible for breaking the blacklist on television. The incident, and subsequent trial, was the basis for the made-for-TV film Fear on Trial (1975).
