About the author
Kevin Shipp, former CIA officer and antiterrorism expert, held several high-level positions in the CIA. He was assigned as a protective agent for the director of Central Intelligence, a counterespionage investigator searching for moles inside the CIA, a Counter Terrorism Center operations officer, an internal security investigator, Chief of Training for the CIA federal police force, supervisor of high-risk asset protective operations, and polygraph examiner. Mr. Shipp functioned as program manager for the Department of State, Diplomatic Security, Anti-Terrorism Assistance global police training program. He is the recipient of two CIA Meritorious Unit Citations, three Exceptional Performance Awards, and a Medallion for overseas operations. He is the author of From the Company of Shadows: CIA Operations and the War on Terrorism. Mr. Shipp has been a regular guest on the American Heroes Channel as an intelligence and terrorism expert and has been the subject of numerous radio interviews and newspaper articles. A brush with a terminal illness when he was a young man and a miraculous recovery made him fearless of death and danger. This served him well in his CIA career and ultimately in publicly standing up to CIA corruption.
