...January 1958, after nearly three years of on-and-off negotiations, the U.S. and the U.S.S.R. signed an elaborate cultural-exchange agreement. A few days later, to get the new era off to a brisk start, Moscow sent Mikhail ("Smiling Mike") Menshikov to Washington to replace dour Georgy Zarubin as ambassador.
