Over the summer, Associate Professor Carol Ueland visited Mr. Dornan prior to a serious decline in his health. At that time, Mr. Dornan was able to provide a great deal of background on the history of the archives. Among the unusual documents he donated to Drew are photographs taken in Russia in the 1920s by the English spy, Sidney Reilly, whose life was popularized in the British television series, "Reilly: Ace of Spies."   According to Professor Ueland, "Mr. Dornan was one of the unknown heroes of the Cold War." In a 1999 book, Sparks of Liberty, which the Library has just acquired, Gene Sosin, the former head of Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty includes several references to Dornan and credits him for his work. The Dornan materials are currently accessible in the Library as a special collection. Individuals seeking further information about the collection may wish to contact Professor Ueland at 408-3507 or cueland@drew.edu. To view the materials, please contact Dr. Linda Connors in the Library at 408-3474.
