There is no such firm, I'm convinced," Novak said on CNN. "And she listed herself as an employee of Brewster-Jennings & Associates.
Robert Novak, the columnist who first printed her name, revealed that, too. In recent years, she told people she worked at an energy consulting firm called "Brewster-Jennings & Associates." She spent her early years in the CIA in Europe, where she received advanced degrees from the London School of Economics and the College of Europe, in Bruges, Belgium. And when the White House did that, it was particularly outrageous, because if I have to keep those secrets, they should be held to that same kind of standard," he explains.Īs the investigation into who leaked her name got underway in Washington, more details about Valerie Plame's life emerged. So we held a particular trust for 18 years and never gave each other up. "We kept that trust in protecting her identity.

Two years ago, when columnist Robert Novak put the name "Valerie Plame" into the public debate over the war in Iraq, Marcinkowski says it took him a few weeks to determine that it was "Val P." who had been compromised. He says the three dozen members of his CIA class were a close-knit group that continued to see each other at class reunions.

That's where he first met a 22-year-old graduate of Penn State University named Valerie. Like all recruits, he was sent to the agency's top-secret training facility in Virginia known simply as "the farm." In the late 1980's, he was a covert CIA agent spying in Central America. And no one knew that she was working for a spy agency until she was exposed," says Jim Marcinkowski, a deputy city attorney in Royal Oak, Mich. And you don't expose people working for a spy agency.
