A senior military official, and always the only woman in the room

Miri Eisin was born in California, raised in Israel, and spent 20 years in the military - serving as Deputy Head of the Combat Intelligence Corps, and retiring as a full colonel. In each position along the way, she was the only woman in the room - and the very first woman to do her job. She later also became the first woman in the country's history to serve as foreign media advisor to the prime minister. In a thoughtful conversation, she reflects on why she loved working in intelligence, the biggest mistake she ever made, and how over the years her definition of success has changed dramatically.
