Armed with single-minded determination and a never-quit attitude, he did just that. Selected over thousands of other highly qualified applicants to become an agent, he was eventually chosen to be one of the best of the best and provided protection worldwide for Presidents George Herbert Walker Bush, William Jefferson Clinton, and George W. Bush. I Am a Secret Service Agent skillfully describes the duties and challenges of conducting presidential advances, dealing with the media, driving the President in a bullet-proof limousine, running alongside him through the streets of Washington, and flying with him on Air Force One. With fascinating anecdotes, Emmett weaves keen insight into the unique culture and history of the Secret Service with the inner workings of the White House. I Am A Secret Service Agent is a must read for young adults interested in a career in federal law enforcement.

The era: the 1970s. The location: an airplane en route to Washington, DC. Kathryn Clark Childers chats with a fellow passenger. “Are you visiting?” her seatmate asked. “No, I work there,” Childers said, pointing out the window to the White House, which had just come into view. “I’m a Secret Service agent.” “Really? I didn’t know they let girls pull that duty. I’m not really sure what you do.” “It’s a secret.” Recruited to the Secret Service as one of its first five female agents, Childers would surprise many people, including herself. Her duties included undercover work, protective details for John and Caroline Kennedy, children of Jacqueline Kennedy, and attending state dinners where she met world leaders, including Prince Juan Carlos of Spain. In addition, she had to figure out how to disguise the .357 Magnum revolver that she carried at all times, whether wearing jogging clothes, a business suit, or an evening gown. It was 1970, and the Secret Service, like most public and private organizations, struggled—sometimes unsuccessfully—with the challenges of incorporating a rising tide of women into government service and other professional workplaces. Written in a lighthearted but highly informative style, Scared Fearless details the obstacles and the joys, the moments of high adventure, and the laughable fashion dilemmas that were part of Childers’ groundbreaking role. Through everything that happened, Childers says, she followed her father’s admonition: “Just do it scared.”
In His Majesty's Secret Service is the memoir of a career agent with the United States Secret Service. Chris Murphy recounts a life nearly cut short by severe asthma. His parents were told to prepare to lose their son in childhood. God had other plans, and Chris never lost the sense of gratitude and enthusiasm that comes with second chances. It is to God's glory that he worked and succeeded. The Secret Service raised him to leadership, but he started public service in law enforcement as an Auburn, Alabama, policeman in 1978. Chris was involved in the full array of municipal police work, including having to shoot an escaped felon. As a Tennessee Bureau of Investigation agent, he worked major felony cases, including participation in the seizure of 1,200 pounds of 98 percent pure cocaine. By God's grace, he ended up arresting the kingpin and his accomplice without backup or adequate weaponry. Bad guys should never bring their daughters to work. In 1985, Chris joined the US Secret Service. He worked federal criminal investigations, including threats against the president and other protectees. He also guarded every president from Ronald Reagan through George W. Bush. He protected vice presidents, presidential candidates, visiting foreign leaders, and former presidents. Chris traveled to over twenty different countries and most of the United States performing his duties. Meeting President Ronald Reagan and Pope John Paul within a two-week period was exhilarating! Conversely, getting the second lady and her aging parent lost in France was demoralizing. A healthy sense of humor and humility are needed in such extremes. Fortunately, Chris has both. He taught terrorism, hostage negotiation, and protective intelligence in the Office of Training. Rising to retire as the special agent in charge of Alabama and Mississippi, Chris helped manage the events and consequences of September 11, 2001, and Hurricane Katrina. In 2006, Murphy's demonstrated leadership and innovation contributed to his postretirement appointment to Alabama governor Bob Riley's cabinet as director of public safety. After completing Riley's mission, Murphy was appointed to Mayor Todd Strange's cabinet bearing the same title over the police, fire, emergency communications, and emergency management agencies. He served seven years in Montgomery, bringing his total public service to forty remarkable years. His Secret Service encounters with history are unforgettable. Chris's passion for ethics, leadership, and his Christian faith provided courage to make tough, necessary decisions. It has been a truly fascinating career!
