                                    FOREWORD

        The Congressional Directory is one of the oldest working handbooks
    within the United States Government. While there were unofficial
    directories for Congress in one form or another beginning with the 1st
    Congress in 1789, the Congressional Directory published in 1847 for the
    30th Congress is considered by scholars and historians to be the first
    official edition because it was the first to be ordered and paid for by
    Congress. With the addition of biographical sketches of legislators in
    1867, the Congressional Directory attained its modern format.

        The Congressional Directory is published by the United States Senate
    in partnership with the Government Printing Office, at the direction of
    the Joint Committee on Printing under the authority of Title 44, Section
    721 of the U.S. Code.
