How many Archive Goodwins were there?

Peggy Converse

Four different actors played Archie Goodwin opposite Sidney Greenstreet's Nero Wolfe. They are....in no particular order....Larry Dobkin, Gerald Mohr, Harry Bartell, and Wally Maher. Perhaps someone else can fill in the spaces for the earlier Archies.

Don Bly

Love the Nero Wolfe radio series, and books, of course! Always thought that a young Dick Powell would be a perfect Archie.

Annie

Loved her radio performances, Whistler especially. But learning years ago that she was the sweet, mellow voiced narrator of Disney's Cinderella AND fractious maniac Cruella de Vil? That's a vocal talent! Eleanor Audley's my fave, but Betty Lou's a close #2

Cathy

Listening to Nero Wolfe right now. This makes me happy.

Michelle

You left out the actor in the picture - Sydney Greenstreet! He teamed with Gerald Mohr in the 1950-51 series along with another actor who also played Archie Goodwin.
