Everette Howard Hunt (1918 - 2007)
"No one is entitled to the truth."
Oh, E. Howard Hunt. Spy (make that "intelligence officer"), author, burglar, professional bastard. A long-time CIA spook who retired from the CIA to become head of security for Richard Nixon's administration, he was indicted for his involvement in the infamous Watergate scandal. He did a bunch of other shady things that most honorable men would be loathe to do.
He also wrote a few non-fiction books and a great many novels in the spy and hard-boiled genres. He allegedly confessed, on his deathbed, to a great deal of knowledge about and involvement in the assassination of John F. Kennedy, but who knows if any of it is true?
Anyway, here's a photo of him supposedly smoking a pipe.
