The Congressional Record is a unique source of public documentation. It started in 1873, documenting nearly all the major and minor policies being discussed and debated.
“BILL ROSENDAHL'S 15TH ANNIVERSARY AS A HOST AND PRODUCER AT ADELPHIA” mentioning the U.S. Dept of State was published in the Senate section on pages S1243 on Jan. 21, 2003.
The publication is reproduced in full below:
BILL ROSENDAHL'S 15TH ANNIVERSARY AS A HOST AND PRODUCER AT ADELPHIA
Mrs. BOXER. Mr. President, I rise today in honor of Bill Rosendahl, who has just marked his 15th anniversary of producing a variety of shows for Adelphia Communications. I would like to take a few moments to recognize Bill's many successes.
I have been a guest on Bill's shows many times. Recently I appeared on his ``One-on-One'' interview program and enjoyed a discussion with Bill ranging from the possible war in Iraq to our Nation's environment and energy policies. Bill is extremely knowledgeable about issues facing our Nation and world. His questions are intelligent, insightful, and penetrating.
Since 1987, Bill has produced 2,600 shows. For 15 years, viewers have tuned in to watch interviews with leaders including former Vice President Al Gore, my colleague Senator Dianne Feinstein, California Governor Gray Davis, Prince El Hassan Bin Talal of Jordan, and former Prime Minister of Israel Ehud Barak.
In addition to his role at Adelphia, Bill serves as Chairman of the California Cable Telecommunications Association, Chairman of the California Commission on Tax Policy in the New Economy, and on boards of the California Channel and Cable Positive.
Prior to his career in the cable industry, Bill Rosendahl was a White House appointee to the State Department as Chief of Operations for the U.S. Trade and Development Program and an associate in philanthropic work for John D. Rockefeller III. He has been involved in many presidential, gubernatorial, and senatorial campaigns. Bill has also traveled to more than 50 countries throughout the world.
It is clear that Bill Rosendahl deserves our warmest wishes on this special occasion. Because of Bill's work, Californians are more informed about issues facing our State, Nation and world. He provides a forum for an engaging exchange of ideas, perspectives and outlooks on the future. I am certain that the next 15 years will be just as exciting as the first.
