Hans H. Indorf
Hans H. Indorf (died March 10, 1989 in Fairfax, Virginia) was an academic professor and international advisor in political science. "I regard Dr. Indorf as one of the most brilliant and best informed men on foreign affairs of any expert I have ever come in contact with," said Senator Robert Burren Morgan.

Early life
Hans Indorf, a naturalized American citizen, was born in Germany but escaped to America during the days of Adolf Hitler, and became a Fulbright scholar as part of the Fulbright Program. His parents remained behind in Germany, later East Germany, behind the Iron Curtain.

Professional life
From 1950 through 1952, he was the executive director of the International Youth Community Services in Hanover, Germany. Later, he became the education director on board the ship for the Council on International Educational Exchange of New York. In 1960 through 1965, he worked as a consultant in Pakistan and representative in Malaysia of the Ford Foundation. From 1971 through 1973, he was the resident director of the Haus Steineck of East Carolina University in Bonn-Bad Godesberg, Germany. In 1974 and 1975 he was a lecturer for the USIS in Southeast Asia and visiting professor at the University of Malaya in Kuala Lumpur.

"Dr. Hans H. Indorf, Associate Professor of Political Science at East Carolina University, has been selected for a Fulbright-Hayes award by the Board of Foreign Scholarships and the US Department of State. The award is for consultation in Malaysia on the development of the new division of Southeast Asian Studies at the University of Malaya in Kula Lumpur. Dr. Indorf will also teach a course on regionalism at the university. Dr. Indorf's specialties are international education, comparative government and Asian politics."

"Hans. H. Indorf, East Carolina University, received his second Fulbright-Hays Award. Since May (1977) he served as a Visiting Professor at the University of Malaysia and in October he joined the Washington, DC staff of US Senator Robert Morgan (North Carolina) as an advisor on foreign and domestic policies."

"Indorf had resided for many years in Fairfax where he operated an international consulting firm, lectured and wrote. He first moved to the DC area during his service as legislative affairs director for former US Senator Robert Morgan (D-NC). Indorf completed a term as distinguished visiting professor at Virginia Military Institute last year."
