Ronald E. Neumann

Ronald Eldredge Neumann (born September 30, 1944) is an American diplomat who served as the United States ambassador to Afghanistan (2005–2007), Bahrain (2001–2004) and Algeria (1994–1997). He is the son of former ambassador Robert G. Neumann and traveled extensively after college in Afghanistan while his father was ambassador there. Only one other father-and-son pair, John Adams and his son, John Quincy Adams, have served as ambassadors to the same country; both Adamses served as ministers to Britain. He pronounces his last name Newmann (without the Germanic ''neu'') and his name is sometimes seen spelled that way. Provided by Wikipedia
