NEW PAPER, added 8/31/15, John Reed faked both his Life and his Death. I also look at the film Reds and Warren Beatty.
PAPER UPDATE, added 9/12/16, John Reed Faked both his Life and Death. More genealogy work shows Reed was related to the billionaire Reeds from Colorado, including the current Joseph Verner Reed and his father, who was a trustee at MOMA.
