W. Averell Harriman While Touring the Soviet Union in 1959

Exterior view with W. Averell Harriman standing in the center in what looks like a garden area near a building. The shorter man standing next to him is probably his interpreter. They appear to be talking to a group of women and those seated appear to be natives of the area. Exact location is not given. 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).
