Denis Sefton Delmer (24 May 1904, Berlin – 4 September 1979, Lamarsh) was a British journalist of Australian heritage and propagandist for the British government during the Second World War. Fluent in German, he became friendly with Ernst Röhm, who arranged for him to interview Adolf Hitler in 1931. During the war, he led a black propaganda campaign against Hitler by radio from England. It was so successful that Delmer was named in the Nazis' Black Book for immediate arrest after their planned invasion of Britain. In the 1932 German federal election, Delmer traveled with Hitler aboard his private aircraft. He was "embedded with Nazi party activists" at this time. He was also present in 1933 when Hitler inspected the aftermath of the Reichstag fire. The Nazi leaders were convinced Delmer was a member of MI6; his denials of any involvement only served to strengthen their belief that he was not only a member, but an important one. In 1933, Delmer was sent to France as head of the Daily Express Paris Bureau. In 1936, Delmer married the artist Isabel Nichols. Delmer covered important events in Europe including the Spanish Civil War and the invasion of Poland by the Wehrmacht in 1939. He also reported on the German western offensive in 1940. More

After attending the University of Illinois, he worked as a journalist for the Chicago Daily News in New York City. In 1935 he became chief of the Berlin bureau. Deuel wrote about his experiences in Nazi Germany in his books, Hitler and Nazi Germany Uncensored (1941) and People Under Hitler (1942). During the Second World War he became special assistant to the director of the Office of Strategic Services and an political adviser to General Dwight D. Eisenhower. After the war he became diplomatic correspondent for the Washington Daily News (1945-1949). This was followed by a spell working for the St. Louis Post Dispatch and the Central Intelligence Agency. He retired from the CIA in 1972. Wallace Ranking Deuel died in May, 1974. “People Under Hitler,” was an account of his observations of German life in the Nazi era, and a thoroughgoing knowledge of the German mentality. “People Under Hitler,” published in 1942, drew this comment from The Times Book Review: “Its description of the systematic away in which liberty has been extracted from German life is accurate, in part novel, and, definitely interesting and informative.”.
