Ronald Radosh talked about his book, Red Star Over Hollywood: The Film Colony's Long Romance with the Left, published by Encounter Books. It was an historical investigation of the Soviet Communists who made the American film industry a prime target for infiltration during the late 1920s. He was interviewed by Jack Valenti, former Chairman and CEO of the Motion Picture Association of America.
Ronald Radosh was the first writer to establish the guilt of Julius Rosenberg in his book, The Rosenberg File. He is also the author of Commies: A Journey Through the Old Left, the New Left and the Leftover Left. His wife Allis Radosh is the co-author of this book.
Jack Valenti is the former President and Chief Executive officer of the Motion Picture Association of America. He served in the Army Air Corps in World War II and founded an advertising and political consulting agency. He became the first special assistant to President Lyndon B. Johnson following John F. Kennedy's assassination. In 1966, he resigned that post to head the MPAA, an organization representing the American motion picture, home video, and television industries. He is the author of four books, including Speak up with Confidence.
