Two of those lives belonged to Morris Carnovsky and his wife Phoebe Brand. They were blacklisted, and their careers ruined, when Kazan named them in 1951. Carnovsky, who went on to become America's leading Shakespearean actor, died in 1992 at age 95.

How can your career be ruined in 1951 when you're a "leading Shakespearean actor" in 1992?

Another journalist from publik skool.

How can a career be ruined? When you're never allowed onto the silver screen. Again, for the record, was Kazan a courageous hero when he refused to name names the first time he testified, or was it the second time just months later when he apparently had been enlightened by studio pressure?
