'''Gertrude Kahn''', also known as '''Mrs. Ray Kahn''', was an American who had a covert relationship with [[NKVD|Soviet intelligence]] during [[World War II]]. In a [[Venona names|Venona]] transcript from [[Moscow]], the Moscow Center suggested Mrs. Kahn be used for foreign intelligence work. The New York ''Rezidentura'' responded that it may not be wise, and that she was best suited for a "passive" role. Kahn's code name in Soviet intelligence and in the Venona decrypts is "Dinah"
