The American Council on Germany (ACG) is a transatlantic non-governmental organization (NGO) affiliated with the Council on Foreign Relations. ACG was founded in 1952 at the same time as its German sister organization, the Atlantik-Brücke, as a private non-profit organization to promote German-American understanding after World War II. As with the Atlantik-Brücke, the founding fathers were the chairman of the Council on Foreign Relations, John J. McCloy, and Eric M. Warburg, McCloy's friend and adviser, who was an officer in the US Army from 1941 to 1945 and a scion of the German-Jewish Warburg family from Hamburg. Other founding members were McCloy's wife, Ellen Z. McCloy, and McCloy's predecessor as High Commissioner in post-war Germany, General Lucius D. Clay.
