英国《卫报》称，斯特拉加入情报部门纯属偶然。1935年，斯特拉出生于伦敦南部的南诺伍德，本名斯特拉·怀特豪斯。4岁时，她随家人从伦敦 搬到巴罗因弗内斯居住。20世纪60年代中期，斯特拉的丈夫约翰·里明顿被派往印度参与外交工作。斯特拉在驻印期间被英国情报系统招募为打字 员，由此开启了自己在情报系统的职业生涯。 1969年斯特拉回到伦敦后，在军情五处负责反颠覆、反间谍和反恐怖主义的部门任职。斯特拉一路晋升，直至1992年被提名为军情五处局长，并 于次年正式接任，至1996年退休。 英媒强调，斯特拉为推动军情五处走出"神秘阴影"、向公众解释其职能做了大量工作，包括推动情报部门向国家档案馆发布历史档案。1992年， 斯特拉的任命仅通过一份两行字的简短声明宣布，且未附带照片，却引发了媒体轰动。《卫报》称，斯特拉是军情五处第一位公开获得任命的局 长。1993年，军情五处出版了一本小册子，首次公开其部分工作内容。斯特拉还与当时的内政大臣迈克尔·霍华德共同出席了正式的宣传活动。尽 管官方存在疑虑，斯特拉仍获许在著名的BBC"丁布尔比讲座"上发表演讲，主题为安全部门在"西方民主国家"中的作用。 【环球时报报道 记者 周扬】据英 ...
