Frederik Pohl, A Very Bad Communist

SF writer Frederik Pohl, doubtless influenced by his extremely left-leaning colleagues in The Futurians (a New York City-based group of science fiction fans active between 1938 and 1945), joined the Communist Party in 1936, but got kicked out sometime thereafter.
