Dayna baer biography of alberta

Dayna and Bob were both married, but, as spies do, they eventually fell in love—after a drive along the French Riviera and a bit of hiking in the Swiss g: alberta.

Two married ex-spies describe life in the CIA and their lives after leaving the spying business. I just went through on-campus recruiting. Why did you choose to get into that in this book? When I was 10 years old, my mother divorced and took me to Europe for three years. So the whole idea of exile, abandonment, leaving family behind was part of my life.

I was 22 years old. I was studying Mandarin at Berkeley. I was sleeping on the couch of a friend. Seriously; it was that random. I trained to learn how to blend in any situation and be invisible.

When Bob and Dayna met on a mission in Sarajevo, it wasn't love at first sight.

I went through a lot of weapons training, high-speed driving and crazy skills. You know, you can learn to drive at 70 miles per hour and run a car off the road. All these really useful skills. I was also trained to do a lot of surveillance work: Could you sit at a bus stop for four hours without anybody noticing you — anywhere in the world?

A lot of disguise, that type of thing. I was assigned to work for an operation that Bob was doing in Sarajevo. So, the sparks, at first, were not — there was nothing like that.
