Darrell M. Blocker: From CIA Spycraft Master to Hollywood Creative Consultant

Darrell M. Blocker started his career as a US Air Force intelligence analyst and CIA operations officer before turning his storytelling skills into a remarkable third career as a Hollywood creative consultant.

The CIA veteran - who spent 28 years at the CIA and was on President Joe Biden’s list of potential Agency directors - is guiding TV and film creators in the spy thriller genre, working on ground-breaking series including Condor.


Blocker also serves as chief operating officer of MOSAIC, a boutique strategic risk and crisis management, intelligence, and security advisory firm. And he sets time aside to help improve the future for youth in foster care. That’s not all. Blocker is also part of an elite team of speakers, consultants, and corporate trainers from the secret intelligence community available for hire through SPYFLIX's sister agency, SPYEX.
