Anchor Judy Woodruff introduces "former attorney at the National Security Agency, Susan Hennessey. She's now a Fellow at the Brookings Institution and is Managing Editor for the website, Lawfare, about the intersection of the law and national security." And "John Sipher. He served almost 30 years at the CIA, both in the Agency's clandestine service and executive ranks. He was stationed in Moscow in the 1990's and he ran the CIA's Russia program for three years."
This may have been Susan Hennessey's debut on national television. Note the only mention of Hennessey's connection to Lawfare is in Woodruff's introduction and she is identified by banner title throughout the rest of the interview as a "Former NSA Attorney."
We'll "circle back" to that a later.

Jordi Ignacio Torres, Irving R. Kaufman
The Heyman Fellowship Program’s financial components (fellowship grant and, for some, loan repayment assistance) are designed to mitigate some of the financial disparity between government and the private sector so that those who want to work in the federal government can more realistically do so. In addition, the Heyman Fellowship Program provides a supportive peer community of HLS graduates in federal public service who can enthusiastically mentor HLS students and young alumni interested in federal government work, and who can assist one another as their public service careers develop.
Oddly, when we examine the list of current and past Heyman Fellows, Susan Julia Klein Hennessey is not listed (select 2013 Fellows in sidebar):
2013
Michael Aktipis,Sonia Carson,Tarun Chhabra, Carly Cohen, Miranda Dugi, Nicole Flores, Lee Hiromoto, Zachary Mason, Devin Mauney, Jordan Myers McGinnis, David Palko, Anne Pierson Allen, Mark Samburg, Jordi Torres, Brian Volsky.
Before taking a look at who some of the past Heyman Fellows are, lets "circle back" some more. In her last semester at Harvard Law, before graduating in May of 2013, Hennessey began writing for LAWFARE. Her last article was published after graduation on 13 June 2013. Here is a list of the articles she wrote, some have co-authors, some she is co-author:

The home page for LAWFARE use to have a selector for contributors on one of the pull down menus. It is no longer there. But, if you just do a search on Susan Hennessey Lawfare Contributor you will get to her full list of articles.
What was the purpose of those Heyman Fellowhips again... mitigate some of the financial disparity.... Or is more like grooming and placing an agent of influence?
"Circling back" again lets look at some of Hennesey's co-authors. Benjamin Wittes co-authors her first article and many others over time. His wikipedia page does not do him justice:
Alan Z. Rozhenshtein, a 2014 Heyman Fellow, wonder where he went to work after graduation.
Alan Rozenshtein co-author with Hennessey
5/19/2013 U.S. Department of Justice, National Security Division, Law and Policy Office (in 2018 I found him teaching at the University of Minnesota.)
John DeLong 2005 Heyman Fellow, co-author Hennessey
10/7/2016 Understanding Footnote 14: NSA Lawyering, Oversight and Compliance
John DeLong is a fellow at Harvard University's Berkman Klein Center for Internet & Society. He is focused on cybersecurity and the implications of technology changes—including machine learning and artificial intelligence —on the framework and best practices for compliance, oversight, and ethics programs. He was formerly with the National Security Agency where he was the Director of Compliance from 2009-2014. He received a B.A. in Physics and Mathematics from Harvard and a J.D. from Harvard Law School.
From 21 Jan to 13 June 2013 Hennessey was published in LAWFARE. We don't know when she actually applied for a position at NSA, but during the months leading up to a job offer she is evaluated for employment, has a national security background check and is polygraphed prior to a job offer.
At the end of the article is a profile of the authors.
"Helen Klein Murillo is a Lawfare contributor and a student at Harvard Law School where she is an editor of the Harvard Law Review."
"Susan Hennessey is a national security fellow at the Brookings Institution and managing editor of Lawfare, previously she was an attorney in the Office of the General Counsel of the the National Security Agency."
Another article quoting Murillo and Hennessey in the New York Times:
If you didn't catch it, Helen Klein Murillo is Susan Hennessey's (nee Klein's) sister. Murillo has a B.A. in Spanish and Political Science and was writing for Lawfare while at Harvard from 1/25/2016 through 8/11/2017, 5 of which she co-authored with her sister who has only used her married name on her articles. Murillo went on to the Hoover Institute. Watch your back Victor Davis Hanson.
The father, Christopher M. Kllein, was a Bankruptcy Judge in Sacramento, CA. Probably about as good a gig as being a coroner in New York during COVID.

From 21 Jan to 13 June 2013 Hennessey was published in LAWFARE. We don't know when she actually applied for a position at NSA, but during the months leading up to a job offer she is evaluated for employment, has a national security background check and is polygraphed prior to a job offer.

Still, $15 million is a tip to waiter for good service if you have $53.2 billion.
