Introduction
On February 29, 1953, President Eisenhower appointed Allen Dulles as Director of Central Intelligence (DCI). Prior to his appointment, Dulles worked extensively with clandestine operations, providing the new Director of Central Intelligence a pragmatic perception of covert action. He applied his world view to create regime change in Guatemala and Iran; the Central Intelligence Agency's activities under the leadership of Allen Dulles highlights how American Cold War strategy increasingly relied on covert operations.
