Ambassador to Jordan
The following is a list of chiefs of mission from the United States to Jordan.
The first chief of mission, Gerald A. Drew held the title of Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary. The second chief of mission, Joseph C. Green, was appointed as an envoy but promoted to as Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary, as the Legation Amman was raised to embassy status on August 27, 1952. Every chief of mission since has held the title of United States Ambassador.
^Recess appointment. Legation Amman was raised to Embassy status August 27, 1952.
^Took oath of office, but did not proceed to post, Jordan having united briefly with Iraq in the Arab Federation.
^The United States Senate confirmed Satterfield to succeed Gnehm as Ambassador to Jordan, but shortly thereafter the administration designated him Principal Deputy Assistant Secretary (having served for the previous three years as Deputy Assistant Secretary) and later that year he was sent to Iraq as Deputy Chief of Mission. As a result, he never assumed his post in Jordan.
