Author Alex Goldfarb is a Russian-American microbiologist and human rights activist who emigrated from the USSR in 1975 after years as a Jewish refusenik. He continued to maintain contact with dissidents in Russia. A former Columbia professor, he combined a scientific career with championing dissident causes.
This episode will be discussing his new memoir: Refusenik's Son: A Story of Spies, Bioweapons, and Cold War Survival, ahead of its mid-September release. The book is an extraordinary story of family, courage, and betrayal during the Cold War. Goldfarb weaves his personal story as one of the players in an intricate cat-and-mouse game of deception and survival. Goldfarb's was a fraught world populated by KGB and CIA agents, informers and traitors, foreign correspondents and politicians, artists and dissidents, some of whom risked their lives.
