A success from the start, Mason was adored by the public. Featured in more than 80 novels, several movies, and a popular 1940s radio show, Mason was already a household word when in 1957 the long-running, immensely popular Perry Mason television series began.  The show ran for 10 years, during which time Gardner continued to produce novel after novel starring the courtroom sleuth. An honest fearless champion of good, Mason took on cases with the help of his friend, Paul Drake, owner of a detective agency in his building, and Della Street, his fiercely loyal secretary.
