Behind the Shades tells the story of the life of a female
agent entering the male-dominated world of the
Secret Service. It is a story of personal sacrifice, adventure,
acceptance and rejection, tenacity, endurance, and
hard work during trying times. Sue Ann Baker was on
the front lines of history and observed it being made on
a larger scale. She is one of the pioneers who paved the
way for the many capable female agents that followed
in her footsteps, and I am proud to say I served with her.
