Biographical History

The Center for Information on America was founded in 1951 in Washington, Connecticut. Townsend Scudder 3rd (1900-1988) served as executive director during its existence. Its purpose was devoted to the broad aim of furthering public understanding of this country's self-governing process and the issues faced in continuing the successful operation of democracy. The goals of the Center were realized through a series of publications, including Vital Issues, Grass Roots Guides on Democracy and Practical Politics, and Capital. The Center closed in 1985.
