Before Julia Child became known to the world as a leading chef, she admitted at least one failing when applying for a job as a spy: impulsiveness.
…She was hired in the summer of 1942 for clerical work with the intelligence agency…
Details about Child’s background and nearly 24,000 other OSS employees are revealed in the newly released documents, withheld from public view as classified records for decades by the CIA.
The 750,000 documents identify the vast spy network managed by the OSS, which later became the CIA. President Franklin Roosevelt created the OSS, the country’s first centralized intelligence operation.
The OSS files offer details about other agents, including Supreme Court Justice Arthur Goldberg, major league catcher Moe Berg, historian Arthur Schlesinger Jr. and film actor Sterling Hayden.
Other notables identified in the files include John Hemingway, son of author Ernest Hemingway; Kermit Roosevelt, son of President Theodore Roosevelt; and Miles Copeland, father of Stewart Copeland, drummer for the band The Police.
Yes, the chef lady on TV(1912-2004). Who could imagine her a spy. I GUESS I COULD…..
Desert eagle this is silent knight, I have reports of a top enemy official preparing to plague the entire population of his surrounding officers with some unidentified form of Oregano and Cumin. What he should be using is a dash of lemon pepper, parsley flakes and paprika. We’ll check back with the results after these commercials.
