Paul Crouch (June 24, 1903 - November 18, 1955) was a communist activist and then paid government informer regarding communist infiltration in the U.S.
federal government.
Crouch biographer Gregory Taylor has called him a "naïve, ill-educated recruit" to the Communist Party.
Oppenheimer biographers Bird and Sherwin have claimed that he was the "most highly paid" informer for the Justice Department in 1951-1952.
