About Prince David Chavchavadze

https://genealogics.org/getperson.php?personID=I00134707&tree=LEO

David Chavchavadze was an American author and the former CIA officer of Georgian-Russian origin.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Chavchavadze

He was born in London to Prince Paul Chavchavadze (1899–1971) and Princess Nina Georgievna of Russia (1901–1974), thus being a descendant of the prominent Georgian noble family and the Imperial Russian dynasty. His father, Prince Paul, was a fiction writer and translator of writings from Georgian into English, and an émigré in the United Kingdom, and then the United States.

Chavchavadze entered the United States Army in 1943 and served during World War II in liaison for U.S. Army Air Force Lend-lease supply operations to the Soviet Union. After the war, he spent more than two decades of his career as a CIA officer in the Soviet Union Division.

After his retirement, Chavchavadze specialized in tracing the nobility of Imperial Russia and authored The Grand Dukes (1989). He also published Crowns and Trenchcoats: A Russian Prince in the CIA (1989) based on his CIA experiences, and translated Stronger Than Power: A Collection of Stories by the Russian author Sandji B. Balykov. As a grandchild of a Russian Grand Duke, he is an Associate Member of the Romanov Family Association.
