Ken Moskow“In 2008, when Kenneth Moskow died in a mountain climbing accident, many of his former classmates in the midcareer program at Harvard’s John F. Kennedy School of Government were startled to learn from the obituaries that he had been a top CIA spy. He had told them, and his professors, that he worked for the State Department — it was the same cover he used on assignment in Spain and Cyprus — and the school’s photo roster listed him that way. The pretense likely helped him cultivate foreign classmates, including ex–Guatemalan defense minister Héctor Gramajo and José María Figueres, who was soon to become president of Costa Rica.”Ken Moskow
