Cory Allen tells all in his memoir Breaking Free.
It’s rare for someone who’s made their living as a master of secrecy to write a book as confessional as Cory Allen has, but he pulls zero punches in his memoir Breaking Free: A Saga of Self-Discovery by a Gay Secret Service Agent.
The book is open and honest about entrenched homophobia in the world of law enforcement, which Allen experienced firsthand through his work in the military, a sheriff’s office in Virginia, and then the Secret Service, which he joined in 2010. It also goes deep on the ups and downs of his love life, which was especially complicated because of the pressure to hide his sexual orientation in these traditionally hyper-masculine spaces. But there’s plenty of excitement in Allen’s story, too: He was assigned to Michelle Obama’s security detail in 2016, and he writes about the whirlwind of her post-White House life, including a star-studded trip to the Grammys in 2019. (More on that later.)
