Theodore Schweitzer

Theodore Schweitzer, an American working clandestinely with the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA), traveled to North Korea more than a dozen times over a two and a half year period posing as a simple tourist and humanitarian. His intelligence reports from inside North Korea were so strategically significant that they were read by President Obama personally. The exact same intelligence reports that were read by President Obama and U.S. intelligence chiefs to make policy decisions about North Korea appear in An American Spy Inside North Korea, the true story of Theodore Schweitzer’s nearly three-year series of secret missions to North Korea involving a dozen trips to the world’s most dangerous country on behalf of the U.S. Defense Intelligence Agency. Mr. Schweitzer secretly visited North Korea more times than nearly any other American and spent more time there than almost any other American has. A chapter on Otto Warmer is included this work.
