Born before Charles Lindbergh conquered the Atlantic, Robert Huddleston served in the Second World War as a combat fighter pilot against the German Luftwaffe. A university education followed and two decades of pubic service, first in New Mexico at the White Sands Missile Range and later in Washington in the Pentagon and with the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. A graduate of the University of Missouri, the George Washington University and the National Defense University, in 1975 he became a freelance writer of articles, essays, one-act plays, book reviews, short stories, and a biography of Edmundo Lassalle, his wife's father who served with the Office of Strategic Services in World War II, the predecessor of the Central Intelligence Agency. EDMUNDO: FROM CHIAPAS, MEXICO TO PARK AVENUE, reveals his espionage activities in Spain where he operated under the cover of being the European Representative of the Walt Disney Company. At war's end, he divorced his wife and married a German princess, the daughter of one of Adolf Hitler's early financial supporters, who had been one of his sources on Nazi activities in Spain.
