"Conrad's deep, resonant voice led to a number of noteworthy roles in radio drama, most prominently his originating the role of Marshal Matt Dillon on the Western program Gunsmoke from 1952–61. Dillon was Conrad's longest running role, and he starred on the series for all of its nine years. In addition to starring, Conrad is credited as having penned the June 1953 episode "Sundown". When Gunsmoke was adapted for television in 1955, the network did not appear interested in bringing either Conrad or his radio costars to the new medium, despite a campaign to convince the network."
James Arness played Marshall Matt Dillon on Gunsmoke.
