Fact

She was a reporter for a Danish newspaper before World War II and had interviewed Nazi leaders Hermann Göring and Joseph Goebbels. In 1935 she was granted an interview with Adolf Hitler, who was so taken with her that he asked her to become a Nazi spy for him. She refused and in 1939 left Europe for the US, where she got a job in Washington, DC, as a syndicated columnist. There she met future President John F. Kennedy and carried on an affair with him. She discovered that the FBI knew about Hitler's attempt to recruit her as a spy and suspected her of accepting his offer. She ended her affair with Kennedy, and in 1945 married cowboy star Tim McCoy. She stayed with him until her death in 1973.
