David Rolph didn’t take a typical route into the CIA. He started in Army intelligence, earned his pilot’s license early, became a flight instructor, went to law school, and even practiced as an attorney before realizing the legal world wasn’t where he wanted to stay. That decision opened the door to a remarkable career in intelligence.
In this episode, David walks through his early life, the experiences that shaped him, and how he ultimately joined the CIA. This journey eventually led him to handle the Soviet Spy, who is considered to be the CIA’s most valuable asset, Adolph Tolkachev—later known as The Billion Dollar Spy—and eventually serve as Chief of Station in both Berlin and Moscow.
This is the beginning of a rare inside look into the career of one of the CIA’s most accomplished intelligence officers.
