Description

Youngstown-area native Mark Baker became a journalist in Europe, where he caught the attention of communist operatives in the 1980s who hoped to compel him to become a spy. We interview Baker from Prague, Czech Republic just months after he got to see a thick file and dozens of surveillance photos that he never knew existed, and his reaction to learning how he'd been targeted by the secret agency behind the Iron Curtain.
