Scope and content:

Cleopatra H. (Cleo) Caldwell joined Rowland's staff as his health legislative specialist in 1987, taking over health-related legislative duties of Adam Jablonowski. She held a Ph.D. in Social Psychology and prior to joining Rowland's staff, she had served as a Congressional Science Fellow, a fellowship awarded by the Society for Research in Child Development.

Her files are organized in two groups: Legislative Research Files and Legislative Mail. Each group is arranged in chronological order by congress. During the 100th Congress, her assigned subjects included: AIDS, Medicare/Medicaid, long-term care, catastrophic illness, infant mortality, and rural health care. Specifically, Cleo's legislative research files contain information about H.R. 2881, a bill introduced by Rowland in 1987 to establish the National Commission on AIDS. Additional information about this commission and related legislation can be found in Legislative Director Kathy Bryant Hennemuth's and legislative assistant Chris Hunt's files. Cleo's "computer letters" (form letters, which also include memos to Rowland and other documents typed by computer) are located in Legislative Director Kathy Hennemuth's legislative mail files.
