"Lux Radio Theater" broadcast a 60 minute radio adaptation of the movie on
February 19, 1951 with William Holden, Joan Caulfield, Edward Arnold and Mona Freeman reprising their film roles.
A piece in Film Comment in the 80s speculated that the opening titles of this movie (which have the two stars' last names in big letters side by side) might be where J.D. Salinger got the name "Holden Caulfield" for the main character in 'Catcher in the Rye', which he was writing when "Dear Wife" came out. The speculation was incorrect as Salinger had used the character's name in a short story in 1945 long before the film was released.
Director Richard Hayden appears at the end of the movie as another one that Miriam wake to hear about a petition.
