[edit] Very little is known

This person is notable as an author of antisemitic tracts, but not much is known about her. --Ludvikus 02:20, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

I see that some blogs, etc, report that Fry was a pen name of "Paquita de Shishmareff". ·:· Will Beback ·:· 23:22, 8 May 2008 (UTC)
Apparently, a foreword to the 1998 7th edition, written by "Tony Blizzard", confirms it.[1] ·:· Will Beback ·:· 23:27, 8 May 2008 (UTC)
  • THE ANTI-COMMUNIST FEDERATION is a typical subversive blind. Its "secretary" is Paquita Louise De Shishmareff, also known as Mrs. Leslie Fry or Louise Fry, mysterious international figure who fled the country when sought by government agencies. Last year this Federation called a convention to be held at the "committee headquarters," which was none other than the Bund's own Deutsches Haus, 634 W. 15th Street, Los Angeles. This convention, according to the report of the Special Committee on un-American Activities of the 76th Congress, "was in no real sense an anti-Communist convention, but rather another of a series of attempts to unite some of the various forces of intolerance, racial hatred, Naziism and Fascism in order to achieve greater influence in the United States."
