Frontier Gentleman 42 Episodes
Frontier Gentleman is a mature, character-driven Western radio drama that offers a thoughtful and often introspective take on life in the Old West. The series follows a refined yet deadly-skilled gunfighter who makes his living as a professional hired gun, traveling from town to town and confronting moral dilemmas as often as armed opponents. Unlike many traditional Westerns, Frontier Gentleman emphasizes psychology, ethics, and personal code over nonstop action, giving the show a distinctive, literary tone.
The Stars
The series starred John Dehner as Kendall O’Hara, the cultured and philosophical gunman whose education, manners, and inner conflicts sharply contrast with the violent frontier world around him. Dehner’s nuanced performance brought depth and credibility to the role, making O’Hara one of radio’s most complex Western protagonists.
Supporting roles were performed by a strong cast of veteran radio actors, portraying ranchers, lawmen, outlaws, and townspeople whose encounters with O’Hara often forced difficult moral choices.

Other Information
Frontier Gentleman was notable for its realistic portrayal of gunfighting as a grim profession rather than a glamorous one. Episodes frequently explored themes of conscience, honor, isolation, and the emotional toll of violence. The series’ opening narration, delivered in O’Hara’s reflective voice, set a somber and thoughtful mood rarely found in Western radio dramas.
Though short-lived, Frontier Gentleman is highly regarded by Old-Time Radio enthusiasts for its strong writing, sophisticated storytelling, and John Dehner’s memorable performance. It remains a standout example of the Western genre at its most thoughtful and adult.
