Move To Los Angeles
On February 9, 1956, Duggan resigned from ABC and moved to Los Angeles.
Roger M. Grace wrote in a column,
“In retrospect, it appears that Tom Duggan, a colorful and controversial talk show host and commentator in Los Angeles in the 1950s and ’60s, had been chased out of Chicago, where he was exposing corruption, by a judge who was himself linked with underworld figures."
Duggan hosted television shows on KCOP-TV, KTLA and KTTV, and wrote a newspaper column for the Los Angeles Herald-Examiner. In 1967 he commuted between Los Angeles and Chicago for 10 months to tape a program for Chicago television.
Duggan also acted in movies and on television. His films included But Not for Me with Clark Gable, and Frankenstein 1970 with Boris Karloff.
