Eugene Louis Dodaro (born May 7, 1951) is the comptroller General of the United States and head of the U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO).

This change of titles is a result of the organization-wide restructuring rather than a promotion or other event in his career; from May 1999 through to March 12, 2008, Dodaro retained the position of second in command of the GAO.

[1] Dodaro attended Lycoming College in Williamsport, Pennsylvania and graduated in 1973[2] receiving a Bachelor of Arts degree[3] in accounting.

[5] On February 15, 2008, when the seventh comptroller general of the United States, David M. Walker, announced that he was departing from his office before the end of his 15-year term to work for the Peter G. Peterson Foundation, he appointed Dodaro to replace him.

On March 13, 2008, Dodaro became the acting comptroller general[6] and was eventually nominated by President Obama to fill the role on a permanent.
