List of ambassadors of the United States to the United Kingdom

[2] The position was last held by Jane D. Hartley, who presented her credentials to Queen Elizabeth II on July 19, 2022.However, the modern tendency of American presidents (of both parties) is to appoint keen political fundraisers from previous presidential campaigns, despite the importance and prestige of the office.The ambassador serves as a primary channel of communication between the two nations and plays an important role in treaty negotiations.As a republic, the United States maintained diplomatic relations with Britain at the rank of Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary.In 1893, the United States followed the French precedent and upgraded its relations with other Great Powers to the ambassadorial level.
