Timeline
Biography in: "The Scribner Encyclopedia of American Lives". Volume One, 1981-1985, pages 541-542. New York: Charles Scribner's Sons, 1998.
In 1947, Maltz and other Party members (and suspected Party members and sympathizers) were called before the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC) which had determined to investigate "communist infiltration" of the movie industry. Maltz and nine others were cited for contempt of Congress for their uncooperative behavior before the Committee, which included not "naming names" of other communists, and were dubbed the "Hollywood 10". All were fined and jailed, and they were also blacklisted by the American film industry. Remaining a committed communist, Maltz continued to write, using "fronts" who sold his screenplays and received any writing credit alloted by the studios and WGA.

He worked on the classic Casablanca (1942) and other feature films and documentaries during World War II.
