You heard the big news yesterday: CIA Director David Petraeus resigned from the agency after citing an extramarital affair. Media attention immediately turned to Paula Broadwell, the biographer of the retired Army General. Earlier this year, she published a biography, "All In: The Education of General David Petraeus." Over the past few years, Broadwell had unprecedented access to Petraeus as an embedded journalist. She's a highly respected writer, military intelligence analyst, former Army officer, and 1995 graduate of the West Point Military Academy with degrees in Political Geography and Systems Engineering, along with a slew of advanced degrees from King's College the University of Denver, and Harvard. 

Strangely enough, it looked like Broadwell's husband wrote an anonymous letter to Chuck Klosterman's advice column in the The New York Times last year. Back in January she made an appearance on The Daily Show. Check it out.
