Naming Names
The story behind the 1950s Hollywood blacklist and the House Committee on Un-American Activities, which issued subpoenas to members of the Hollywood filmmaking community--writers, directors, actors--demanding their testimony about membership in the Communist Party. Those subpoenaed faced wrenching moral dilemmas, as well as the possible loss of their careers, as they were ordered to testify against friends and colleagues. Some chose to testify--naming names--while others dissented, and many lives were ruined. Navasky draws on the experiences of Elia Kazan, Ring Lardner, and others.
