Biography
Diane Farr is the White House chief of staff and is loyal to President Michelle Travers, her longtime friend. Her assistant is Valerie Chen.

Diane takes young Peter Sutherland under her wing as he investigates what happened to Rose Larkin's aunt and uncle, who were assassinated.

Throughout The Night Agent
Diane was not happy about Peter Sutherland's response to being ambushed by Elliot Rome, a conspiracy theorist who ran a site named The Rome Tome. He accused Peter of being responsible for the bombing a year prior. Peter's father was previously accused of treason and died before he could prove his innocence, causing people to theorize that Peter is also a traitor.

Diane instructed Peter to say "no comment" to future ambush interviews. She reminded him of their agreement and that he must do well as a night agent before moving on to something greater.

On the way to his office, Peter encountered the Director of the Secret Service, Ben Almora. Ben suggested that the President is interested in Peter's decision to stay with the FBI rather than join the Secret Service.

Jamie Hawkins, Deputy Director of the FBI, asked about a crime report that Peter was meant to write. He was not happy with Peter's response and was annoyed that Peter also reported to Diane Farr, Chief of Staff. Jamie cautioned Peter to choose his side wisely.

Peter informed Diane about the situation. Diane ordered Peter to keep Rose safe and not to tell her anything. There would be a debrief the next morning.

Jamie Hawkins informed Rose of the news her aunt and uncle had been killed. He was not pleased that Diane had sent Peter to take Rose. Peter drove Rose to his apartment to pick up a few things. He set up a camera, took a gun and a burner phone. Rose began to realize her aunt and uncle lied to her about their jobs. Rose found newspapers about a disgraced FBI agent who died in a car crash.

While Rose slept, Peter got a notification about someone in his house. He called Diane, who alerted agents outside his apartment. Unfortunately, once they got inside, they could not find anyone. Peter screenshotted a ring one of the intruders was wearing.

The next morning, Peter was kicked out of the debrief because it was above his level. He urged Rose to tell them everything she saw, but as Rose overheard her aunt say someone in the White House was compromised, she refused to give information during the debrief.
