Notorious Russian Spies Throughout History

Morris and Lona Cohen
Both husband and wife were born in the U.S. and began serving as Soviet spies in the late 1930s. They were forced to suspend their espionage activities after their identities were compromised. After a few years, they set up shop in London under the guise of Helen and Peter Kroger, antique booksellers. The pair were arrested in 1961 for their involvement with the Portland Spy Ring and freed in 1969 as part of an exchange for Gerald Brooke, a British citizen arrested in the Soviet Union. Upon arrival in the U.S.S.R., both were named Heroes of the Soviet Union, where they helped train more spies.
