My primary thanks go to Purnima Bose and Margo Crawford, who directed the project, offering constant support and invaluable advice. They have been mentors as well as friends throughout this process. Margo’s enthusiasm and brilliant ideas have buoyed my excitement and confidence about the project, while Purnima’s detailed, pragmatic advice has kept it historically grounded, well documented, and on time! Readers De Witt Kilgore and Robert Terrill also provided insight and commentary that have helped shape the final product. In addition, Purnima Bose’s dissertation group of fellow graduate students Anne Delgado, Chia-Li Kao, Laila Amine, and Karen Dillon has stimulated and refined my thinking along the way. Anne, Chia-Li, Laila, and Karen have devoted their own valuable time to reading drafts and making comments even in the midst of their own dissertation work. This dissertation has also been dependent on the activist work of the Black Panther Party, the League of Revolutionary Black Workers, the International Socialists, the Socialist Workers Party, and the diverse field of contemporary anarchists.

A Conversation with Myra Tanner Weiss
American Trotskyism’s ‘Anarchobolshevik’ A Conversation with Myra Tanner Weiss Myra Tanner Weiss, a prominent figure in the American Trotskyist movement through the 1940s and 50s, died in a nursing home in Indio, California on 13 September 1997 at the age of eighty. She had been the organizer of the Socialist Workers Party (SWP) five-branch Los Angeles local for a decade, a member of the party’s National Committee from 1944 to 1963, a three-time SWP candidate for vice-president of the United States, and, for many years, served as the only female full member of its Political Committee (PC). In her 20 September 1997 obituary the New York Times described her a “fiery speaker” who: “cut a stylish figure in leftist circles—a small, attractive woman who was always immaculately turned out, generally in a well-cut suit of lush material run up by her husband’s tailoring family.” Myra joined the Trotskyist movement 1935, while at university in Salt Lake City. She soon moved to California where she participated in a union organizing drive to sign up agricultural and cannery workers. In 1942 she married Murry Weiss. The young couple, who were among the most dynamic people in the SWP at the time, ran the party’s Los Angeles local during most of the 1940s. Under their leadership the LA branch was not only the liveliest, but also, by the end of the decade, the largest. It was also the party’s chief source of young recruits. In addition to serving as Los Angeles district organizer, Myra was also the group’s main public figure, running for mayor in both 1945 and 1949.

Petrone ; Sloan ; G. Sloane Date and place of birth: February 28, 1916, Newark, NJ (USA) Date and place of death: April 19, 1986, New York, NY (USA) Nationality: USA Occupations, careers, etc.: Writer, editor, printer, historian, party organizer, political leader Time of activity in Trotskyist movement: 1935 - 1986 (lifelong Trotskyist) Biographical sketch Note: This biographical sketch is primarily based on A tribute to George Breitman : writer, organizer, revolutionary / ed. by Naomi Allen and Sarah Lovell, New York, NY, 1987 (containing obituaries, reminiscences and appraisals of G. Breitman by some 50 individuals and some 14 organizations) and on other items listed below under the heading Selective bibliography: books and articles about Breitman. George Breitman was born on February 28, 1916 at Newark, New Jersey, as son of Benjamin Breit- man, an iceman, and his wife Pauline (b. Trattler), a houseworker. George Breitman grew up in a Ne- wark working class neighbourhood together with his brother Samuel and his elder sister Celia, who soon joined the ranks of the Young Communist League (YCL), the Communist Party’s youth organiza- tion, and who had a strong influence on George. He began to read voraciously, one of his favourite hangouts being the Newark Public Library. In 1932, in midst the Great Depression, he graduated from Newark Central High School and like most of his classmates had to join the ranks of the unemployed youth.

James P. Cannon Bio-Bibliographical Sketch
Lubitz' TrotskyanaNet James P. Cannon Bio-Bibliographical Sketch Contents: • Basic biographical data • Biographical sketch • Selective bibliography • Notes on archives Basic biographical data Name: James P. Cannon Other names (by-names, pseud., etc.): John Battle ; C. ; James Patrick Cannon ; Jim Can non ; Cook ; Dawson ; Dzh. P. Kannon ; Legrand ; Martel ; Martin ; Jim McGee ; Walter Date and place of birth: February 11, 1890, Rosedale, Ka. (USA) Date and place of death: August 21, 1974, Los Angeles, Cal. (USA) Nationality: USA Occupations, careers, etc.: Journalist, political activist, party leader, writer and editor Time of activity in Trotskyist movement: 1928 - 1974 (lifelong Trotskyist) Biographical sketch James P. Cannon was an outstanding example for American labour radicalism, a life-long devoted and unwaver ing socialist and internationalist, a co-founder of both the communist (in 1919/20) and the Trotskyist (in 1928/ 29) movement in the United States, the founder and long-time leader of the American Socialist Workers Party (SWP) and its predecessors as well as one of the most influential figures in the Trotskyist Fourth International (FI) during the first two decades of its existence. However, his features in the annals of Trotskyism are far away from being homogeneous, and it is a very truism that a man like Cannon must almost inevitably have caused much controversy. Undoubtedly being America's foremost Trotskyist and vigorously having coined the SWP, he on the one hand has been continuously worshipped and often monopolized by various epigones whereas on the other hand Trotskyist and ex-Trotskyist dissidents have considered him an embodiment of petrified orthodoxy or workerism or ultra-Leninist factionalism.
