Whittaker Chambers Dies On Quiet Maryland Farm
Whittaker Chambers, 60, ex-Communist spy turned government witness, died of a heart attack at a Maryland farm near Bachman’s Valley. His death follows a long public fight with legal battles over libel suits and the Hiss case, with Nixon once a key figure in public exposure. He left a complex legacy as a defector and witness in the Alger Hiss proceedings.
