'''Joseph Simpson Farland''' (August 11, 1914 – January 28, 2007) served as United States Ambassador to four countries.<br />
<br />

During World War II Farland worked with the [[FBI]] and then was in the Navy. After the war besides continuing his law activities Farland also served as president of coal companies. Farland became United States Ambassador to the [[Dominican Republic]] in 1957. He was then appointed Ambassador to Panama in 1960 serving in that post until 1963. In 1963 Farland returned to practicing law in [[Washington, D.C.]] Farland later served as United States Ambassador to Pakistan from 1969 to 1972 and then as Ambassador to Iran from 1972 to 1973. During his term as ambassador to Pakistan, Farland arranged for [[Henry Kissinger]] to visit China via Pakistan in 1971.
