David Cohen is the New York City Police Department Deputy Commissioner for
Intelligence. Photos of Cohen are
rare, he reportedly
hates publicity and is
not a fan
of civil liberties. He is a former CIA Director of Operations and Deputy
Director of the Directorate of Intelligence. The NYPD web site
says
only, year after year, "Deputy Commissioner David Cohen's biography will
be posted soon." NYC
statement
on Cohen's appointment:
He spent 35 years with the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) before joining
the firm. During his career at the CIA, Cohen guided the agency's operations
and analysis functions. He also served as the senior CIA official in the
New York area.
From 1995 to 1997, Cohen directed the CIA's Directorate of Operations, where
he oversaw the agency's worldwide operations, managed the CIA's global network
of offices and personnel, and maintained agency relationships with foreign
intelligence and security services. From 1991 to 1995, Cohen was deputy director
of the CIA's Directorate of Intelligence, where he guided the agency's analysis
program, which reviewed every political, economic, and military assessment
prepared by the CIA for the President and his senior national security advisors.
Cohen's career at the CIA was marked by his leadership in combating global
terrorism, international organized crime, narcotics trafficking, money
laundering, and the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction.
