Find Madame Secretary here on Netflix: https://www.netflix.comA college professor and a brilliant former CIA analyst who left for ethical reasons, Elizabeth returned to public life at the request of President Conrad Dalton following the suspicious death of her predecessor. The President values McCord apolitical leanings, her deep knowledge of the Middle East, her flair for languages and her ability to not just think outside the box, but to not even acknowledge there is a box. McCord’s team includes her Chief of Staff Nadine Tolliver, speechwriter Matt Mahoney, press coordinator Daisy Grant and her charming assistant, Blake Moran. As McCord debates third world problems, finesses foreign dignitaries at work and does battle with the President’s combative Chief of Staff Russell Jackson, that’s just a warm-up for when she goes home to her supportive husband, Henry, and their three children, where “politics” and “compromise” take on new meaning.Barbara Hall, the creator and show runner of Madam Secretary, is a longtime TV writer and Executive Producer whose credits include a fantastic list of shows like Moonlighting, Norther Exposure and Chicago Hope. She created both Joan Of Arcadia and Judging Amy and serves as the Co=-Executive Producer of Homeland.
