Life

Ambassador Casey graduated with a degree in international relations from the University of Colorado at Boulder[1] in 1970,[3] and spent most of her overseas career in northern Africa. Her first assignment was as vice consul and political officer at the U.S. Embassy in Morocco; her most recent overseas position was Ambassador to Tunisia. In between, she spent time as a Watch Officer in the State Department Operations Center, desk officer for Iraq, as a Hoover Institution National Fellow at Stanford, as Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for Intelligence and Research, and as the Ambassador to Algeria.[1]

Upon returning from Tunisia, Ambassador Casey became the State Department's "Diplomat in Residence" at the University of Colorado at Boulder, where she helped establish the Smith Hall International Program, chaired the International Affairs committee of the University's Conference on World Affairs, and taught several courses on international relations.

Her foreign languages include Arabic and French.[1]
