Series Description: Documentary drama.

Passport for Adams grew out of a request by the Office of War Information for a "goodwill" documentary series on the fighting countries of the United Nations, CBS took up the call. The action followed a country editor on his mission for Consolidated Newspaper Syndicate. The series, fully dramatized, was nevertheless semi-documentary in nature, explaining the customs and people of our fighting Allies as seen through the eyes of Adams. Accompanying Adams on his jaunt was "Quiz" Quisinberry, a slang ridden, girl hungry New York photographer.
