Fort Laramie was a radio show that focused on tales of the dark and tragic ground of the wild frontier. The series revolved around the character Lee Quince, a captain in the cavalry, and emphasized historical accuracy, with the creator, Norman Macdonnell, insisting on the use of correct geographic names, authentic Indian practices, military terminology, and original names of the buildings at the real Fort Laramie. The show was led by Canadian-born actor Raymond Burr, who played the role of Captain Lee Quince. The supporting cast included Vic Perrin as Sgt. Goerss and Jack Moyles as Major Daggett, the commanding officer of the post.

Fort Laramie aired 41 episodes from January 22, 1956, to October 28, 1956, on CBS Radio. An audition episode was recorded on July 25, 1955. The series starred Raymond Burr, who later became a television star as Perry Mason. The show explored mature themes and delved into the psychological motivation of its characters as they navigated life in the unforgiving American West. The series remains highly regarded for its accurate portrayal of historical events and figures, as well as its thoughtful exploration of the human condition in the context of the wild frontier.
