“Mr. District Attorney” was a radio crime drama that aired on NBC from 1939 to 1952. The show was created by Phillips H. Lord and starred Jay Jostyn as the title character, the district attorney of an unnamed city. The show was known for its tagline, "The voice of the law speaks softly but carries a big stick," and for its portrayal of the district attorney as a tough but fair-minded crimefighter.

Each episode of “Mr. District Attorney” followed the district attorney and his assistant, Harrington, as they worked to solve and prosecute crimes in their city.
