Zusammenfassung: | The Cold War and the Golden Age of Hollywood meet in this story of the remarkable career of Boris Morros, film producer and Russian double agent. Boris Morros was a major figure in the 1930s and '40s. The head of music at Paramount, nominated for Academy Awards, he then went on to produce his own films with Laurel and Hardy, Fred Astaire, Henry Fonda, and others. But as J. Edgar Hoover would discover, these successes were a cover for one of the most incredible espionage tales in the history of the Cold War-Boris Morros also worked for Russian intelligence. Morros's assignments took him to the White House, the Vatican, and deep behind the iron curtain. The high-level intel he provided the KGB included military secrets and compromising information on prominent Americans: his friends. But in 1947, Morros flipped. At the height of the McCarthy era, he played a leading role in a deadly tale. Jonathan Gill's 'Hollywood Double Agent' is an extraordinary story about Russian spies at the heart of American culture and politics, and one man caught in the middle of the Cold War |

Notes on Sources Much of the research for this book focused on readily available materials such as published histories, biographies, and memoirs, as well as popular and scholarly periodical material, especially music, radio, theater, and film trade journals from the 1930s and 1940s. Interviews with members of Boris Morros’s extended family proved useful up to a point: At first they were happy to speak openly about their very complicated relative, but with the exception of Marion Morros, his second wife, they almost inevitably eventually broke off contact without explanation, as if the long arm of Soviet intelligence had silenced them. Unpublished and both classified and declassified official sources also proved invaluable. The American archive was, ironically, somewhat less useful than the Soviet side, with the FBI having publicly released a miniscule fraction of the materials they hold related to Boris Morros’s activities, despite a wide-ranging Freedom of Information request— copies of the notorious 1943 anonymous letter to J. Edgar Hoover are an important exception. Nonetheless, there was much to learn from the transcripts of Jack Soble’s FBI interrogation (available at https://vault .fbi.gov under file number 100-86896-N). Also of much interest were the transcripts of Russian cables that the United States government inter cepted during World War II and later decoded and annotated, collectively known as the Venona files, available at https://www.nsa.gov/news-features /declassified-documents/venona/. The situation as regards official Soviet documents was very differ
ent, with a massive archive of still-classified documents having recently 295
NOTES ON SOURCES surfaced. Vasili Nikitich Mitrokhin, a senior KGB archivist, took advan tage of the transportation of the KGB’s archives from Lubyanka to Yasenevo in the 1970s and 1980s to make copies of 25,000 pages of secret documents dating from the 1930s to the 1980s and hid them in his house, bringing them to London after he defected in 1992. They are publicly available at the Digital Archive: International History Declassified section of the Woodrow Wilson Center website: https://digitalarchive.wilsoncenter .org/collection/52/mitrokhin-archives. Even more valuable than the Mitrokhin materials, at least from the perspective of the Boris Morros story, is the archive collected by Alexander Vassiliev, a former KGB general who was given full access to more than two decades of classified Soviet documents regarding American intelli gence operations dating from the 1930s to the 1950s, offering a far broader and more representative picture of Soviet intelligence operations at mid century than the Venona or Mitrokhin materials. The original idea was for the eventual publication to fund the pensions of retired KGB agents who found themselves at financial loose ends after the breakup of the Soviet Union, but that scheme fell through after two years and Vassiliev was denied further access, but by then he’d filled eight notebooks and a large number of loose pages with detailed notes. Certain that the information he had put his life in danger, he fled to England and together with Allen Wein stein published a summary under the title The Haunted Wood. Transcripts and translations
of the eight notebooks and loose pages that resulted—the text known as “Yellow Notebook #3” is almost fully devoted to Morros’s activities—are available via the Cold War Intellectual History Project of the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars at https://digital archive.wilsoncenter.org/collection/86/vassiliev-notebooks.

Notes on Sources Much of the research for this book focused on readily available materials such as published histories, biographies, and memoirs, as well as popular and scholarly periodical material, especially music, radio, theater, and film trade journals from the 1930s and 1940s. Interviews with members of Boris Morros’s extended family proved useful up to a point: At first they were happy to speak openly about their very complicated relative, but with the exception of Marion Morros, his second wife, they almost inevitably eventually broke off contact without explanation, as if the long arm of Soviet intelligence had silenced them. Unpublished and both classified and declassified official sources also proved invaluable. The American archive was, ironically, somewhat less useful than the Soviet side, with the FBI having publicly released a miniscule fraction of the materials they hold related to Boris Morros’s activities, despite a wide-ranging Freedom of Information request— copies of the notorious 1943 anonymous letter to J. Edgar Hoover are an important exception. Nonetheless, there was much to learn from the transcripts of Jack Soble’s FBI interrogation (available at https://vault .fbi.gov under file number 100-86896-N). Also of much interest were the transcripts of Russian cables that the United States government inter cepted during World War II and later decoded and annotated, collectively known as the Venona files, available at https://www.nsa.gov/news-features /declassified-documents/venona/. The situation as regards official Soviet documents was very differ
ent, with a massive archive of still-classified documents having recently 295
NOTES ON SOURCES surfaced. Vasili Nikitich Mitrokhin, a senior KGB archivist, took advan tage of the transportation of the KGB’s archives from Lubyanka to Yasenevo in the 1970s and 1980s to make copies of 25,000 pages of secret documents dating from the 1930s to the 1980s and hid them in his house, bringing them to London after he defected in 1992. They are publicly available at the Digital Archive: International History Declassified section of the Woodrow Wilson Center website: https://digitalarchive.wilsoncenter .org/collection/52/mitrokhin-archives. Even more valuable than the Mitrokhin materials, at least from the perspective of the Boris Morros story, is the archive collected by Alexander Vassiliev, a former KGB general who was given full access to more than two decades of classified Soviet documents regarding American intelli gence operations dating from the 1930s to the 1950s, offering a far broader and more representative picture of Soviet intelligence operations at mid century than the Venona or Mitrokhin materials. The original idea was for the eventual publication to fund the pensions of retired KGB agents who found themselves at financial loose ends after the breakup of the Soviet Union, but that scheme fell through after two years and Vassiliev was denied further access, but by then he’d filled eight notebooks and a large number of loose pages with detailed notes. Certain that the information he had put his life in danger, he fled to England and together with Allen Wein stein published a summary under the title The Haunted Wood. Transcripts and translations
of the eight notebooks and loose pages that resulted—the text known as “Yellow Notebook #3” is almost fully devoted to Morros’s activities—are available via the Cold War Intellectual History Project of the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars at https://digital archive.wilsoncenter.org/collection/86/vassiliev-notebooks.

Boris Morros was a major figure in the 1930s and '40s. The head of music at Paramount, nominated for Academy Awards, he then went on to produce his own films with Laurel and Hardy, Fred Astaire, Henry Fonda, and others. But as J. Edgar Hoover would discover, these successes were a cover for one of the most incredible espionage tales in the history of the Cold War-Boris Morros also worked for Russian intelligence. Morros's assignments took him to the White House, the Vatican, and deep behind the iron curtain. The high-level intel he provided the KGB included military secrets and compromising information on prominent Americans: his friends. But in 1947, Morros flipped. At the height of the McCarthy era, he played a leading role in a deadly tale. Jonathan Gill's 'Hollywood Double Agent' is an extraordinary story about Russian spies at the heart of American culture and politics, and one man caught in the middle of the Cold War</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="546" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="b">die Buchstaben w, u und n im Haupttitel sind als kyrillische Buchstaben dargestellt</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="600" ind1="1" ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Morros, Boris</subfield><subfield code="d">1891-1963</subfield><subfield code="0">(DE-588)1062471571</subfield><subfield code="2">gnd</subfield><subfield code="9">rswk-swf</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2="1"><subfield code="a">Morros, Boris / 1891-1963</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Espionage, Soviet / United States</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Cold War</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Motion picture industry / California / Los Angeles / History / 20th century</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Motion picture producers and directors / United States / Biography</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Spies / Biography</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2="1"><subfield code="a">Morros, Boris / 1891-1963</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Espionage, Soviet</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Motion picture industry</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2="2"><subfield code="a">California / Los Angeles</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2="2"><subfield code="a">United States</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2="4"><subfield code="a">1900-1999</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">History</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Biographies</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="655" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="0">(DE-588)4006804-3</subfield><subfield code="a">Biografie</subfield><subfield code="2">gnd-content</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="689" ind1="0" ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Morros, Boris</subfield><subfield code="d">1891-1963</subfield><subfield code="0">(DE-588)1062471571</subfield><subfield code="D">p</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="689" ind1="0" ind2=" "><subfield code="5">DE-604</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="776" ind1="0" ind2="8"><subfield code="i">Erscheint auch als</subfield><subfield code="n">Online-Ausgabe</subfield><subfield code="z">978-1-68335-815-2</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="856" ind1="4" ind2="2"><subfield code="m">Digitalisierung BSB München - ADAM Catalogue Enrichment</subfield><subfield code="q">application/pdf</subfield><subfield code="u">http://bvbr.bib-bvb.de:8991/F?func=service&doc_library=BVB01&local_base=BVB01&doc_number=032213152&sequence=000001&line_number=0001&func_code=DB_RECORDS&service_type=MEDIA</subfield><subfield code="3">Inhaltsverzeichnis</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="856" ind1="4" ind2="2"><subfield code="m">Digitalisierung BSB München - ADAM Catalogue Enrichment</subfield><subfield code="q">application/pdf</subfield><subfield code="u">http://bvbr.bib-bvb.de:8991/F?func=service&doc_library=BVB01&local_base=BVB01&doc_number=032213152&sequence=000003&line_number=0002&func_code=DB_RECORDS&service_type=MEDIA</subfield><subfield code="3">Literaturverzeichnis</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="856" ind1="4" ind2="2"><subfield code="m">Digitalisierung BSB München - ADAM Catalogue Enrichment</subfield><subfield code="q">application/pdf</subfield><subfield code="u">http://bvbr.bib-bvb.de:8991/F?func=service&doc_library=BVB01&local_base=BVB01&doc_number=032213152&sequence=000005&line_number=0003&func_code=DB_RECORDS&service_type=MEDIA</subfield><subfield code="3">Register // Gemischte Register</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="940" ind1="1" ind2=" "><subfield code="n">oe</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="940" ind1="1" ind2=" "><subfield code="q">BSB_NED_20200817</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="999" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">oai:aleph.bib-bvb.de:BVB01-032213152</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="942" ind1="1" ind2="1"><subfield code="c">791.409</subfield><subfield code="e">22/bsb</subfield><subfield code="f">0904</subfield><subfield code="g">73</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="942" ind1="1" ind2="1"><subfield code="c">351.09</subfield><subfield code="e">22/bsb</subfield><subfield code="f">0904</subfield><subfield code="g">947.08</subfield></datafield></record></collection> |
