About this listen
Stuart Bowen has just issued his quarterly report investigating waste, fraud and security problems in the Iraq reconstruction efforts. Next week Bowen appears before a House Committee which begins hearings into waste and fraud in reconstruction. Bowen has served in this post since October 2004. Formerly, Bowen served in the White House under George W. Bush, and was a partner at the Washington DC law firm of Patton Boggs LLP. Bowen's ties to Bush go back to the early 1990s, when he worked in the Texas Governor's office in various legal offices. Bowen was also an intelligence officer in the U.S. Air Force, where he achieved the rank of Captain.
Then, former FBI agent Eric O'Neill and film director/screenwriter Billy Ray have collaborated on the new film Breach based on the true story about FBI operative Robert Hanssen, who was found guilty of treason, and the FBI agent (O'Neill) who was assigned to Hanssen to draw him out of deep cover. Billy Ray also wrote and directed the critically acclaimed feature Shattered Glass. Breach stars Chris Cooper, Ryan Phillipe, and Laura Linney. [Broadcast Date: January 31, 2007]
