"Illuminating a thrilling untold chapter of the Cold War, The Double Life of Katharine Clark shares the forgotten story of a remarkable woman who pioneered a career in a male-dominated profession. In 1955, Katharine Clark became the first female Americanwire reporter behind the Iron Curtain, forging a career as a journalist, befriending a leading Communist, and risking her life to smuggle away books that exposed the truth about Communism to the world. This dramatic historical narrative shows how one woman with an unwavering commitment to truth, justice, and freedom of the press put her life on the line to reshape American history"-- Provided by publisher.
