Thank you for posting your question on History Hub!
We searched available finding aids to records located in the Records of the Army Staff (Record Group 319) and Records of the Office of Strategic Services (Record Group 226). We also searched the “Intelligence and Investigative Dossiers Personal Files, ca. 1977-ca. 2004” and “Intelligence and Investigative Dossiers Impersonal Files, ca. 1977-ca. 2004.” We were unable to locate any records pertaining to Katharina Zammit (Kitty Schmidt) and the Salon Kitty.
Please review the article titled Recent Books: The Man Who Started the War, by Gunter Pets located in the series titled Articles from ‘Studies in Intelligence’ in the Records of the Central Intelligence Agency (Record Group 263) as it may contain information relevant to your research.
In addition, we suggest consulting microfilmed records located in National Archives Microfilm Publication No. T175 “Records of the Reich Leader of the SS and Chief of the German Police” in the National Archives Collection of Foreign Records Seized (Record Group 242). A finding aid to these records may be viewed online. Please access it by going to the Microfilm Catalog and entering the Microfilm Publication Number (T175), clicking on the search result, and clicking on the “View Important Publication Details” in the right hand corner of the screen.
We hope this is helpful. Best of luck with your research!
