He lived in <a href="/wiki/Paris" title="Paris">Paris</a> in the 1920s, as part of its famous expatriate American writers' circle, when he met his first wife, <a href="/wiki/Josephine_Herbst" title="Josephine Herbst">Josephine Herbst</a> in 1924. Herbst enjoyed more success as a writer than Herrmann; the couple lived a few years in rural <a href="/wiki/Pennsylvania" title="Pennsylvania">Pennsylvania</a>, and were friends with <a href="/wiki/Katherine_Anne_Porter" title="Katherine Anne Porter">Katherine Anne Porter</a>, <a href="/wiki/Ernest_Hemingway" title="Ernest Hemingway">Ernest Hemingway</a>, <a href="/wiki/John_Dos_Passos" title="John Dos Passos">John Dos Passos</a>, <a href="/wiki/William_Carlos_Williams" title="William Carlos Williams">William Carlos Williams</a>, and others. </p><p>Herrmann's first novel, <i>What Happens</i>, was original published in Paris by <a href="/wiki/Robert_McAlmon" title="Robert McAlmon">Robert McAlmon</a>'s Contact Editions press. Copies were seized by U.S. Customs upon their arrival in the United States on the charge of violating the 1922 Tariff Act, which banned the import of obscene materials from foreign countries. Herrmann fought the charge in a jury trial in New York City in October 1927 but ultimately lost. Despite supporters such as <a href="/wiki/Genevieve_Taggard" title="Genevieve Taggard">Genevieve Taggard</a>, <a href="/wiki/H.L._Mencken" class="mw-redirect" title="H.L. Mencken">H.L. Mencken</a>, and Katharine Anne Porter, the jury responded with a negative verdict, and the judge ordered the seized copies destroyed. </p><p>After returning to Michigan in 1924, Herrmann wrote a manuscript about anti-German backlash during World War I but was unable to get it published. Researcher Sara Kosiba found the manuscript in the Harry Ransom Center at the University of Texas at Austin and arranged to have it published in 2018 under the title "Foreign Born." </p><p>In 1932, Herrmann's short novel, "The Big Short Trip," tied with <a href="/wiki/Thomas_Wolfe" title="Thomas Wolfe">Thomas Wolfe</a> for the <a href="/wiki/Scribner%27s_Magazine" title="Scribner's Magazine">Scribner's Magazine</a> short novel prize. </p><p>In 1934, he went to work with <a href="/wiki/Harold_Ware" title="Harold Ware">Harold Ware</a> and his organization Farm Research, Inc., which worked with the <a href="/wiki/Agricultural_Adjustment_Administration" class="mw-redirect" title="Agricultural Adjustment Administration">Agricultural Adjustment Administration</a>. Herrmann soon was a part of the <a href="/wiki/Harold_Ware" title="Harold Ware">Ware group</a>, a secret apparatus of the <a href="/wiki/CPUSA" class="mw-redirect" title="CPUSA">CPUSA</a> and <a href="/wiki/Comintern" class="mw-redirect" title="Comintern">Comintern</a> in Washington, D.C., which supplied classified information to <a href="/wiki/Soviet_Union" title="Soviet Union">Soviet</a> intelligence. From early 1934 until the summer of 1935, Herrmann was a paid courier for the CPUSA, delivering material emanating from the secret cells of sympathetic government employees being cultivated by Hal Ware to <a href="/wiki/New_York_City" title="New York City">New York City</a>. Herrmann also was the person who introduced <a href="/wiki/Whittaker_Chambers" title="Whittaker Chambers">Whittaker Chambers</a> to <a href="/wiki/Alger_Hiss" title="Alger Hiss">Alger Hiss</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>In 1940, Herrmann divorced Herbst and married Ruth Tate.
