Some men make headlines. Others make history. A subtle few mold the future of nations in their image - and you'd never even know it.
In this 2-part True Spies miniseries, journalist and author of The Devil's Chessboard, David Talbot, joins Sophia Di Martino to uncover a hidden history of the United States. A history penned by a man who made an outsized impact on the way we live today - Allen Dulles.
In Part 1, Talbot documents the rise of the CIA's longest-serving director - and the first civilian to hold the post.
