No, but  Dunayevskaya did for a while use the pseudonym
of "Freddie Forrest"

 I was told that Dunayevskaya was itself also a psuedoynm.
I think the earliest published writings by RD were on the Soviet economy in the 1940s.
Johnson-Dunayevskaya (or Johnson-Shoul) would not have sounded quite right, I don't think.
So perhaps the need for a second psuedoynm Forest.

while she was a member of the Socialist Workers 
Party (SWP) in the US.   She was a leader of an opposition tendency
within the SWP called the "Johnson-Forrest Tendency".   J.R.
Johnson was the pseudonym for C.L.R. James.

In solidarity, Jerry
