Does anyone remember?

[Valentino, Russell]

I remember them both fondly, Anyse (btw, Elena Dmitriew).

I'll send you an email when I can catch my breath at the end of this semester.

Hello.

I am interested to know if anyone here remembers two people who were  
professors of Russian at Fresno State University in the 70's and 80's.  
First, there is Dr. Alexander Pronin, who was, I believe, with the OCS  
prior to being the CIA) after the war and worked in a number of spy  
activities after leaving (fleeing?) Russia after the Great Patriotic  
War. Next, is the wonderfully charming Galina Dmitriew. She left  
Russian in te early 1950's to Canada and, ultimately to the US. She  
wrote a book about her experience with Stalin's Russia as well.

If anyone has any stories or remembrances of these two people, I would  
appreciate it if you could send them to me at: anyse1 at mac.com

Thanks to all of you in advance.

Anyse Joslin
