Seth Rosenfeld Biography

The best-selling book Subversives: The FBI's War on Student Radicals and Reagan's Rise to Power, written by independent San Francisco columnist Seth Rosenfeld, is published by Farrar Straus and Giroux. Subversives continue the FBI's mysterious contribution with three infamous personalities from Berkeley in the 1960s: the liberal University of California President Clark Kerr, the wild yet delicate radical Mario Savio, and the striving new government official Ronald Reagan. Rosenfeld tells a passionate and disturbing tale of FBI surveillance, illegal invasions, manufactured reports, poison-pen letters, and mysterious detention records through the combination of these tales. He reveals how J. Edgar Hoover, Reagan's close friend, led the FBI's covert operations during the intense conflict to undermine the Democrats and benefit Reagan practically and strategically. Meanwhile, he vividly depicts Berkeley's life in the middle of the 1960s and demonstrates how the college network became the scene of a protracted conflict between the ruling class and the city's free people.
