Cyrus Roberts Vance (March 27, 1917 � January 12, 2002) was an American lawyer and United States Secretary of State under President Jimmy Carter from 1977 to 1980. Prior to that position he was the Secretary of the Army and the Deputy Secretary of Defense.

As Secretary of State, Vance approached foreign policy with an emphasis on negotiation over conflict and a special interest in arms reduction. In April 1980, Vance resigned in protest of Operation Eagle Claw, the secret mission to rescue American hostages in Iran. He was succeeded by Edmund Muskie.

Vance was the cousin (and adoptive son) of 1924 Democratic presidential candidate and lawyer John W. Davis. He was the father of Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance, Jr.

RAMPANT CORRUPTION AT THE MANHATTAN DISTRICT ATTORNEY'S OFFICE The attached audio clip was recorded on December 30, 2008 outside the gate of the Manhattan District Attorney's Office, 7th floor, 100 Center St. I was at the DA to check the status of a criminal complaint against a Judge (Herman Cahn) who had committed various felonies and misdemeanors, including tampering with evidence. The morning before the recorded incident occurred, I had gone to 1 Hogan Place, which is the entrance to the DA's office. I was told by the guard there that I was on a "list" of people banned from the DA's office, and that I could not enter. No reason was given. Although 1 Hogan place shares a building with 100 Center street, they are entirely distinct and have separate access. 100 Center street houses numerous Government agencies, and several courtrooms. Having been denied access to the DA's office, I went to the clerk at 100 Center street, and asked how I could obtain information on the status of the complaint. The clerk told me to go to room 732, where the records of complaints are kept. Room 732 is in the DA's office, but is accessed through a guarded gate on the seventh floor of 100 Center street. The clerk told me that I had "Every right" to go to the DA's office to check my complaint. The following recorded conversation took place at the gate. The NYPD officer at the gate told lie after lie, trying to dissuade me from checking the status of the case. When I failed to be dissuaded by <b>...</b>
