Autorenporträt
After a childhood that included several years spent in France, Poland, and Switzerland, Peter Dewey participated in some of the most dramatic and important episodes of World War II. A graduate of St. Paul's School in Concord, New Hampshire, and Yale University, Dewey was in Paris in September 1939 when France and England declared war on Nazi Germany. Dewey covered the war as a reporter on the Chicago Daily News Paris desk and then joined the Polish Army as a member of the Polish American Volunteer Ambulance Service. During and after the war, he served in the Office of Strategic Services, the forerunner to the CIA. He was killed in 1945 while on a mission in Saigon.
