After emerging in 1950 to testify before congress about his experiences, Cvetic's exploits were soon chronicled in magazines, on the silver screen, and in a taut and entertaining radio series based on his real-life adventures. The 1951 film I Was a Communist for the FBI starred Frank Lovejoy. The success of the film spawned a radio series starring Dana Andrews which ran from April 23, 1952 until October 14, 1953.
