Nathan Gregory Silvermaster (November 27, 1898 – October 7, 1964), an economist with the United States War Production Board (WPB) during World War II, was the head of a large ring of Communist spies in the U.S. government.〔Herken 2002, pg. 88〕 It is from him that the FBI Silvermaster File ,〔(FBI SilvermasterFile 65-56402 )〕 documenting the Bureau's investigation into Communist penetration of the Federal government during the 1930s and 1940s, takes its name. His wife, Helen and stepson, Anatole Volkov, were members of his ring. He was identified as a Soviet agent in the WPB operating under the code names Pel,〔(1017 KGB New York to Moscow, June 29/30, 1943, pg. 2 )〕 Pal, “Paul”〔(888 KGB New York to Moscow, June 9, 1943, pg. 2 )〕 in the Venona decrypts; and as “Robert” both in Venona〔(1787 KGB New York to Moscow, 19 December 1944, pg. 1 )〕 and independently by defecting Soviet intelligence courier Elizabeth Bentley.〔FBI Report, (''Underground Soviet Espionage Organization (NKVD) in Agencies of the United States Government'' ), October 21, 1946 ((FBI Silvermaster file, Volume 82) ), pg. 12 (PDF, pg. 17)〕 ==Early years== Silvermaster was born of a Jewish family in Odessa, Russia (present-day Odessa, Ukraine) in 1898. He moved with his family to China, where he learned to speak perfect English with a British accent. He emigrated to the United States and earned his B.A. from the University of Washington in Seattle (where he was “stated to be a known Communist”) and a Ph.D. from the University of California, Berkeley, where his thesis was entitled ''Lenin’s Economic Thought Prior to the October Revolution''. He became a naturalized American citizen in 1926. He was reported to be in contact with a very large number of Communist Party USA officials, and was active in a number of Communist front groups.〔(FBI Report ), op. cit., pgs. 21-23 (PDF pgs. 26-28)〕
