The Secret History of Women at the CIA
Chair: Karen K. Berson
Liza Mundy, the acclaimed author of Code Girls: The Untold Story of the American Women Code Breakers of World War II returns to the Club with a revelatory history of three generations at the CIA—the women who fought to become operatives, transformed spy craft and tracked down Osama Bin Laden. Propelled by the same meticulous reporting and vivid storytelling that infused Code Girls, Mundy offers a riveting new perspective on history in her book The Sisterhood: The Secret History of Women at the CIA, revealing how women at the CIA ushered in the modern intelligence age, and how their silencing made the world more dangerous. Created in the aftermath of World War II, the Central Intelligence Agency relied on women even as it attempted to channel their talents and keep them suppressed. Women sent cables, made dead drops and maintained the agency’s secrets. Despite discrimination—even because of it—women who started as clerks, secretaries or unpaid spouses rose to become some of the CIA’s shrewdest operatives.
