The United States Information Agency (USIA), which existed from 1953 to 1999, was a United States agency devoted to "public diplomacy". In 1999, USIA's broadcasting functions were moved to the newly created Broadcasting Board of Governors, and its exchange and non-broadcasting information functions were given to the newly created Under Secretary of State for Public Diplomacy and Public Affairs at the U. S. Department of State. The agency was previously known overseas as the United States Information Service (USIS). As a USIS product, it was primarily produced for overseas distribution, and relatively few copies were available in the United States. More
