The Confidential Life of a Gay Secret Service Agent-- Revealed !

 Cory Allen has made history. His recently released book, Breaking Free: A Saga of Self-Discovery by a Gay Secret Service Agent is the first book released from a gay federal agent in the United States in 30 years, and the first ever from a Secret Service Agent. Cory is our guest today. He served as a closeted police officer in a para-military world for years. He went federal, hoping for more protections as a gay man. In the Secret Service he took on high-level protective assignments around the world, including guarding U.S. presidents. He was the first gay agent to demand equal rights for his husband following the SCOTUS rulings. Breaking Free: A Saga of Self-Discovery by a Gay Secret Service Agent is a deeply personal, candid, and vulnerable dive into the life of a gay man navigating law enforcement, government, and his own turbulent love life. A Secret Service Agent in the Obama era, he cracks open themes of identity, gay marriage, discrimination, love, sex, and finding peace and balance.   Released by NFB Publishing out of Buffalo, NY in March 2023, the book is carried by all major outlets including Amazon. Breaking Free is also available at OuttoProtect.org, a non-profit educating law enforcement on the needs of their LGBTQ+ citizenry and empowering LGBTQ+ officers; and by IEFPA.org, the International EMS and FF Pride Alliance.
