Douglas Arnold Hyde was an English political journalist and writer. Originally a communist and the news editor of the Daily Worker, he resigned in 1948 and converted to Catholicism. After his conversion, he gained an international reputation in the late 1940s and 1950s as a prominent and outspoken critic of communism. His most famous publication, I Believed, was a great financial success, created with the help of MI6, with reprints secretly being sponsored by the UK Foreign Office's Information Research Department (IRD) to be used as anti-Soviet propaganda.
