Jack Barsky was a deep undercover spy for the KGB who remained undetected for 16 years! He may never have been identified had it not been for a unique cover name and another defector.

Jack Barsky, born in East Berlin 4 years after the end of World War II took an amazing life's journey from becoming a college professor to being recruited by the KGB. His assignment? Infiltrate and live in the United States as a spy under our noses. He was to build his identity, grow rich, and then do serious damage to the US. Fortunately, things took a very sharp turn and Jack is now very much a proud American citizen.
