View with diplomat and journalist W. Averell Harriman standing in suit second from the right. The man on the right is probably his interpreter. Harriman is visiting with a group of what appears to be unidentified workers in an unknown building in the Soviet Union. Charles W. Thayer accompanied W. Averell Harriman as a guide and confidant on the trip which took place May 12 - June 26, 1959. Harriman went as a special foreign correspondent for the North American Newspaper Alliance (NANA).
