Grose

Peter Grose is an editor and specialist on the history of intelligence. Grose was an editor for the New York Times and Foreign Affairs. He held a position at the Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs, John F. Kennedy School of Government, Harvard University, where he completed his historical work on international insurance and published a book on deregulation of the global electricity industry, Power to People. Other works by Grose include his biography of Allen Dulles, Gentleman Spy, and Operation Rollback: America's Secret War Behind the Iron Curtain.

The Peter Grose Papers document Grose's research on Allen Dulles, the origins and early years of the Central Intelligence Agency, and the Soviet Union. The papers include writings, subject files consisting of research notes and photocopied sources, and a small number of photographs. Of note is the Central Intelligence Agency's declassified history of Allen Dulles's tenure at the CIA. The collection also includes readings and other materials from a Yale seminar on Cold War intelligence taught by Grose.
