    Won two straight Emmy's

    Is this available anywhere? Richard Kiley made his debut playing idealistic young assistant DA Abner Coates in a dramatization of James Gould Cozzens; The Just And The Unjust. (Which was dramatized, in part, because its author, James Gould Cozzens, had just won the for his Pulitzer winning masterpiece, Guard Of Honor, which was too big to be shown on TV. At the time.)
