Keynote Speaker
About Jonna Mendez
The bestselling coauthor of The Moscow Rules and Argo tells her riveting, courageous story of being a female spy at the height of the Cold War. Mendez began her CIA career as a “contract wife” performing secretarial duties for the CIA as a convenience to her husband, a young officer stationed in Europe. She needed his permission to open a bank account or shut off the gas to their apartment.
Yet Mendez also had a talent for espionage. Often underestimated and occasionally undermined, she lived undercover and served tours of duty all over the globe, rising first to become an international spy and ultimately to Chief of Disguise at the CIA’s Office of Technical Service.
Through her experiences and unconventional rise at the agency, she brings unique firsthand perspectives on the toll of a gendered culture, not only on the women working within the agency but also on its overall mission and the nation it serves. Now retired after dedicating 27 years of her life to the CIA, she'll recount tales of the grit and good fortune it took for her to navigate a misogynistic world as she emerges as a pioneer who defied the prevailing sexism of her time.
