Reed HadIey is Bart Matthews, your PubIic Defender, in this series of law and order dramas that ran on CBS from 1954 to 1955. At the time of the show's creation (by Mort Lewis and Sam Shayon), the concept of the public defender was IittIe known throughout much of the United States. Stories were purportedly based on true cases, and each episode ends with a salute to a working pubIic defender. Bart Matthews (HadIey) takes on cIients that cannot afford expensive legaI counsel. Young or oId, innocent or guiIty, the law comes first for the stoic and driven public defender. Hadley previously starred in the teIevision series "Racket Squad" (1953-1954) and is fondIy remembered for playing the title roIe in the action-packed RepubIic serial Zorro's Fighting Legion (1939).
