Landing level category

This category contains profiles of US Ambassadors to United Kingdom.

The office of United States Ambassador (or formerly Minister/Envoy Extraordinary) to the United Kingdom (known formally as Ambassador to the Court of St. James's) was traditionally, and still is very much so today due to the Special Relationship, the most prestigious position in the United States Foreign Service. The ambassadorship has been held by various notable politicians, including five who would later become presidents: John Adams, James Monroe, John Quincy Adams, Martin Van Buren and James Buchanan.
