Rocky Fortune was an American radio drama series created by George Lefferts that aired on NBC Radio from October 1953 to March 1954. The show starred Frank Sinatra as Rocco "Rocky" Fortunato, a young man constantly in need of employment who takes on odd jobs from the fictitious Gridley Employment Agency. These jobs often led to trouble, as Rocky found himself tracking down criminals and rescuing people in need. The witty and tongue-in-cheek nature of the show allowed Sinatra to playfully acknowledge his own career in the dialogue. The only other recurring character was police sergeant Hamilton J. Finger, voiced by Barney Phillips. While the show's scripts occasionally stretched believability, Sinatra's cool persona and entertaining storylines contributed to its appeal. The series aired for a total of 25 episodes before coming to an end, as Sinatra's movie career took precedence with his Academy Award-winning role in From Here to Eternity.
