Jacob Spolansky was a Ukrainian-born American who rotated between government and private (corporate) investigative agencies as "part of a class of professional spies fostered by the growth of anticommmunism during the First World War and first Red Scare, perhaps best known as "chief of the 'red squad'",[2] a "professional enemy of communism,"[3] and a key player in the government raid on the 1922 Bridgman Convention.[1][4][5][6][7][8][9]
