Dr. Death was one of the earliest United States dramatic TV series.
It was one of the earliest mini-series produced for television, though not the first, as the BBC in the UK had transmitted Ann and Harold in 1938 (it is not known if there were any other mini-series prior to 1945, as early television series are poorly documented).
The program was adapted from Cornell Woolrich's book The Black Angel by Ernest Colling, who also directed the show.
As methods to record live television did not exist until late 1947, nothing remains of the series.
