Jonna Mendez, former CIA Chief of Disguise, specialized in concealing the identities of operatives and assets in the field, while also developing new methods of deception. This entailed creating photorealistic masks that look indistinguishable from a real face. She proved this by wearing one to a meeting with President George H.W. Bush in the Oval Office. Today, she spends her time on the International Spy Museum’s Advisory Board in Washington D.C. Read more for two videos and additional information.
The CIA didn’t make these masks all on their own, as they received help from Hollywood experts, some of whom have worked on masks for movies like Planet of the Apes. Now the masks you see here may look realistic, but for the CIA to show them in a museum means that their current disguises have gone far beyond a simple prop. These don’t take hours to put on like in the movies, just a few minutes at most.
