KAREN YOUNG:  AEI
Half of the National Security Council's leaders are reportedly women, according to 
​The Federalist. "Twelve of the 24 directorates are led by women now, including three of the six regional directorates that cover the world," says the article, which mentions five of them:
  • "Dr. Deborah Birx is the physician and diplomat serving as head of the coronavirus response";
  • "Allison Hooker is the senior director in charge of Asia";
  • "Elizabeth Erin Walsh has been NSC's senior director for African affairs";
  • "Sue J. Bai is deputy assistant to the president and principal deputy legal adviser to the NSC";
  • And "Julia Nesheiwat is the senior director for homeland security affairs."
I recently interviewed author and former CIA officer Tracy Walder, author of The Unexpected Spy: From the CIA to the FBI, My Secret Life Taking Down Some of the World’s Most Notorious Terrorists and am eager to read Sarah Carlson's new book, In the Dark of War: A CIA Officer's Inside Account of the U.S. Evacuation from Libya, which comes out this Tuesday. This new bunch of authors follows in the footsteps of former CIA officer Nada Bakos, who I interviewed last summer about her book, The Targeter: My Life in the CIA, Hunting Terrorists and Challenging the White House. It's refreshing to get a whole different perspective on what it means to serve the country as a spy from a whole new generation (and gender) of authors.
