Autorenporträt
Warren Reed is a former Australian Secret Intelligence Service (ASIS) agent with a continuing keen interest in geopolitics of globalisation, especially the burgeoning role of China and its increasingly close relationship with Russia. A regular media commentator on espionage and terrorism, Reed is often sought out to comment on the human side of spying. Born in Tasmania, Reed undertook two years National Service in the Australian Army before completing a degree in Political Science and Business Administration from the University of Tasmania. In 1973, he was admitted to the Law Faculty of the University of Tokyo as an Australia-Japan Business Cooperation Committee Scholar. On his return to Australia, Reed consulted for a major Japanese trading house before being recruited by ASIS and trained by the British Secret Intelligence Service (MI6) in London. His ten-year career in clandestine work focused on Asia and the Middle East, and he has lived and worked in Tokyo, Cairo and New Delhi. Reed left ASIS in 1987 and subsequently held the position of Chief Operating Officer for CEDA. Fluent in written and spoken Japanese, Warren Reed's other language studies include Mandarin, Bahasa Indonesian and Arabic.
