This J. Edgar Hoover biography talks a lot about his friendship with Walter Winchell, he and Clyde Tolson hobnobbing with Winchell’s social circle as a couple, and his gossip columnist allies embarking on a deliberate press gambit to promote the notion that Hoover might wed Lela Rogers (mother of Ginger) after his mother’s death left his enduring bachelorhood open to innuendo. But unfortunately I have two fucking brain cells so I am absolutely thinking about the various fictionalized noir Winchell analogues hanging out with the Hoov.

RIP J.J. Hunsecker, you would have hated his little dogs.

It’s striking how many of the warriors weren’t immune to same-sex desire. Hoover had a lifelong relationship with Clyde Tolson, who served as his deputy for 42 years. They not only worked together—they went everywhere together. We don’t know how sexual the relationship was. Maybe it was a male version of the Boston marriage, but there were also tales of lurid photos. Who knows? (The stories about him wearing a dress are very thinly sourced.) Roy Cohn, who denied he had AIDS up until his death from it in 1986, had plenty of male lovers.

Hoover remained director of the FBI until he died of a heart attack in his Washington home, on May 2, 1972, whereupon operational command of the Bureau was passed onto Associate Director Clyde Tolson. On May 3, 1972, Nixon appointed L. Patrick Gray – a Justice Department official with no FBI experience – as acting director of the FBI, with W. Mark Felt becoming associate director.

Of course it was passed on to Mother Tolson, if only for a little while…

"Above all, I would teach him to tell the truth Truth-telling, I have found, is the key to responsible citizenship. The thousands of criminals I have seen in 40 years of law enforcement have had one thing in common: Every single one was a liar." Happy Birthday, J.

And Edgar J Hoover, in turn, was strongly suspected of being gay and having a stable relationship with another man. Hoover always remained a bachelor and starting from the 1940s insistent rumors began to circulate about his alleged homosexuality, which was never confirmed. Nor was her alleged relationship with Clyde Tolson, associate director of the FBI, with whom she had collaborated for years, established. Edgar J Hoover unleashed the communist "witch hunt", especially of those who were Jews of Russian origin (and Jerry was). Hoover always declared that he feared no one. Almost. Because it seems that only the Italian Mafia managed to keep Hoover in its grip. @fredandginger64

I wanted to ask you about the FBI files on Dean and Jerry. I've read some of Dean's that talked about an obscene recording made during the making of "The Caddy"and something about homosexuality. And what about Jerry? Were they accusing the two of them of being gay? I'm new to this Martin and Lewis fascination,they have really stolen my whole heart, so I'm devouring everything I can find about them. And I really really love and appreciate everything you do to keep these wonderful boys' memory alive

Thanks for your kind words! Glad to you dived into the emotional rollercoaster that is this fandom! haha

Sorry about taking so long to reply!

The record so upset the FBI that they kept bringing it up as some sort of evidence of moral depravity that Dean and Jerry committed. Edgar J. Hoover was obsessed with finding out if people were either gay or communists basically. I'm not sure how reputable this person is who outed Dean and Jerry and "classified them as gay." They are only known in the FBI files of Dean and Jerry's, as an "admitted homosexual" since the name is blacked out. I presume this person may still be alive, since their name is still redacted.

Jerry lost a contract to work on a project that he wanted the FBI to be portrayed in. FBI agents brought up Jerry's records (The Caddy outtake and the suspected gay accusation), to the FBI director who approved the project, and he canceled the contract and the approval of any FBI portrayal in Jerry's tv series that he wanted to produce.

Also Edgar J Hoover refused to meet with Jerry when he wrote to him asking for a meeting, because he suspected him of being gay.

Love, Romance and FBI Agents

Soooo, I know there is a movie about it...kind of...

But how come I can’t find any books about it? Or inspired by?

I need a J. Edgar Hoover x  Clyde Tolson book. Definitely fiction, and preferably with some fantasy or sci-fi elements.

I mean...LOOK!
