Ryan, under her former professional name Harriet Ann Phillipi, was the journalist whose Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request with the CIA, and the subsequent court case that arose from it, Philippi v. CIA,[3] created the unusual FOIA exemption known as the "Glomar Response". She had filed a FOIA with the agency asking for records about their attempts to secretly recover the sunken Soviet submarine K-129 from the Pacific Ocean floor in 1974 using the purpose-built ship Hughes Glomar Explorer, as part of Project Azorian, which was one of the most complex, expensive, and secretive intelligence operations of the Cold War at a cost of about $800 million, or $Шаблон:Inflation billion today. Rather than simply withhold certain documents or redact portions of documents, the CIA refused to either confirm or deny the existence of such documents. This type of non-responsive reply has since come to be known as the "Glomar response" or "Glomarization".[4]

Ryan has won multiple awards for her crime fiction, including Agathas, Anthonys, the Daphne, Macavitys, and for The Other Woman, the Mary Higgins Clark Award. National reviewsШаблон:Who have called her a "master at crafting suspenseful mysteries" and "a superb and gifted storyteller."Шаблон:Cn
