Behind the Suit: Wild Planet’s Danny Grossman – Cold War diplomat turned U.S. toy Czar

Grossman got a firsthand taste of the decades-long, high-stakes conflict in the 1980s while he served as a member of the U.S. State Department's diplomatic corps in the Soviet Union. Caught in a 'tit for tat' bout of expulsions between the U.S. and U.S.S.R., Grossman was falsely labeled as a spy and booted out of the country in 1986.
