 CIA - 1950s - Popov
Pyotr Semyonovich Popov was a major with Soviet military intelligence (GRU) when he contacted American intelligence in Vienna in 1953 and offered his services as a spy for the United States.
Popov was arrested by the Soviets in 1958.
It is interesting that, as Hart tells it, Popov was not a very good GRU officer, but became quite capable at getting his CIA handlers the information they wanted and at anticipating what they might want.

 Daugherty | Handler of the "Spy Who Saved the World"
Popov continued to spy for the CIA until 1958, when he was caught—through no fault of Kisevalter—and executed.
Ashley’s recounting of Kisevalter’s life is thorough, and the details of the Popov and Penkovsky cases are sufficiently adequate for readers to come away with a good sense of the difficulties they presented, the operational modalities they involved, and the vital importance of each.
As both the Popov and Penkovsky cases have been written about in greater detail by others, the real value in this book is that the reader is able to meet a man who is unlike any with whom most people are ever privileged to know.
