President-elect Biden will reportedly tap former U.S. Ambassador to Denmark Rufus Gifford as the State Department’s chief of protocol.
The transition team has not officially confirmed the choice that Axios reported on Tuesday. Axios notes Gifford would oversee functions at the State Department and Blair House.
Gifford would also travel regularly travel abroad with Biden and liaise with the White House and foreign diplomats in D.C. Gifford is one of six openly gay men who served as ambassadors during the Obama administration.
Gifford and his husband, Stephen DeVincent, married at Copenhagen City Hall in 2015. The two men starred in a reality show on Danish television during Gifford’s ambassadorship.
