The symmetric genus of a finite group G has been defined by Thomas W. Tucker as the smallest genus of all surfaces on which G acts faithfully as a group of automorphisms (some of which may reverse the orientation of the surface). This note announces the symmetric genus of all finite alternating and symmetric groups.
