My Parents Were CIA Agents
July 31, 2006 by admin.
My Mother and Father worked for the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). Our journey as a family into the world of espionage is an intense, dangerous, and demanding story. I will share my unique observations as seen through the eyes of a young man traveling the world, experiencing life with my family.
This book is a tribute to my Father and Mother’s dedication to preserving our way of life through their service in the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). As it turns out, my mother also worked for the CIA for a short time, as a secretary and cable writer (early type of email) in Vientiane Laos.
My father joined the Marines, graduated from law school, served with the ATF (Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms) United States Treasury Federal Agent chasing bootleggers and mobsters. Then he joined the CIA during a very turbulent time of our history when Soviet and Chinese threats were all about. Because of his previous training and interest in electronics, he was assigned to CIA/TSD, or Technical Services Division, which did most of the stuff like “Q” did in the James Bond movies. This included providing tradecraft equipment and services that were required from CIA Stations all over the world. We lived in Fairfax Virginia, Frankfurt Germany, Vientiane Laos, and Rome Italy during his CIA career. My father traveled to many continents and when he retired wrote a fictional book about two CIA agents.

FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions
This is where I tried to answer the most frequently asked questions about the book, the web site, and my family.
Q: Why did you write this book?
A: Because I felt that most espionage books concentrated on the primary agent and never dealt with the family of the agent, the interaction of the family, and the effects that the work had on all of them.
Q: Did you ever work for any Intelligence agency?
A: No, I based my book on my own observations. I never used any classified documents to create my working draft. If I wrote about a sensitive subject, I edited out anything that could be considered not for public dissemination or was not already known in the public domain.
