Africa Notes (July 1, 1982), I Wrote: Number 82 February 29, 1988 A publication of the Center for Strategic and International Studies, Washington, D.C. Whos Who, and Where: A Guide to Key Personnel in U.S.-African Diplomacy In the first issue of CSIS Africa Notes (July 1, 1982), I wrote: "With the publication of CSIS Africa Notes, a new dimension is added to the Center's African Studies Program. Not all articles we publish . will be as irreverent as this issue's tour of five countries of East Africa [Jerry Funk's "Observations on Strategic Realities and Ideological Red Herrings on the Horn of Africa"], but all will be concerned in one way or another with destereotyping. The problem with boxing and labeling African leaders and states as 'good guys' and 'bad guys' is that boxes and labels devised in either Moscow or Washington tend to disintegrate in the African sun. Thus, we will be looking through a variety of prisms at African political configurations, personalities, conflicts, economic pressures, external relationships , ... and policy options for the United States." In the five and a half years since the 1982 launching, we have produced 82 issues on a wide range of policy-relevant topics (see list on page 7) written by more than 40 authors. Our subscribers in the United States and in over 30 other countries fall generally into the categories whose special needs we sought to serve from the outset- "decision makers, analysts, and trailblazers with Africa-related responsibilities in governments, corporations, the media; research institutions, universities, and other arenas." One of the most popular issues published from time to time has been our "Who's Who, and Where" guide to key personalities in U.S.-African diplomatic relations. In response to many recent requests, this No. 82 provides a 1988 update on African ambassadors and embassies in Washington, U.S. embassies and ambassadors in Africa, and the structure and key Africa-relevant officials of the Department of State. It also includes some new reference material. This special issue of CSIS Africa Notes was researched and coordinated by Jean-Paul Paddack, who joined the African Studies Program in May 1987.

Population Advisor May 26, 1989 HARVARD INSTITUTE FOR INTERNATIONAL DEVELOPMENT ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS A successful project is never the effort of just one person ­ it takes a cohesive and committed team to make it work. I was very fortunate not only to be a part of several different teams but to have the support of many people who really cared about the success of the first family planning project in Chad. I owe each of them my deepest appreciation and thank them for their generosity and persistent commitment to Chad and to family planning. The follow:ng institutions and individuals are: 1. The Agency for International Development/N'Djamena a) Mrs. Diane Blane: My supervisor at USAID and the one person who should take the credit for making the project work. Without her loyalty, commitment and encouragement the project would have encountered endless obstacles. b) Mr. Bernie Wilder: The USAID representative whose commitment to family planning issues helped make the project successful. c) Mr. John Woods: Deep appreciation for all his support and wisdom in the beginning of the project as the USAID representative.

This will eliminate delays resulting from the for­ warding of official mail to officers who have transferred. Normally, correspondence con­ cerning commercial matters should be ad­ dressed simply "Commercial Section" followed by the name and correct mailing address of the post.

  • Interview with Ms. Helen Weinland
    Library of Congress Interview with Ms. Helen Weinland The Association for Diplomatic Studies and Training Foreign Affairs Oral History Project HELEN WEINLAND Interviewed by: Charles Stuart Kennedy Initial interview date: February 2, 2009 Copyright 2009 Q: Let's start at the beginning; when and where were you born? WEINLAND: I was born in Manhattan on July 28th, 1941. My family at that time lived just over the border in Westchester County, in Yonkers. I actually grew up in Chappaqua, New York, where Bill and Hilary Clinton now hang their hats. Q: Let's start on your father's side; where did they come from, what do you know about that family on that side? WEINLAND: My father was Richard Douglas Weinland. He was born in 1910 in Springfield, Ohio. His father was an engineer and had graduated from Ohio State. My father grew up in Springfield and went to Miami University of Ohio. After he graduated, (I think he majored in chemistry), he went to work for the Continental Can Company, which no longer exists but was a major American packaging company. He went to their operation in Cincinnati, where he met and married my mother. As soon as they married, they moved to New York City and he worked for the rest of his life with Continental Can Company in New York City — for the rest of his working life, I should say. Interview with Ms. Helen Weinland http://www.loc.gov/item/mfdipbib001662 Library of Congress For a good part of that time my father was in the international division of Continental Can Company which had a whole number of licenses for some of their patented systems with overseas companies: in France, in Germany, in Great Britain.
