Abstract :
This paper provides an overview of the history of the IEEE Control Systems Society (CSS). It features commentary from all of the current and former editors-in-chief of the IEEE CSS publications as well as the current and former Society presidents. With the aid of the IEEE CSS archive DVD and stories from people who created and contributed to the Society, a clearer picture of how the Society began and where it is now can be obtained.
