We present an explicit construction of supersymmetry generators in the operator formulation of open string field theory. Witten's open string theory is considered with the associated Neveu-Schwarz and Ramond sectors. A precise formulation of NS-R string overlaps and their construction in the Hilbert space is given. The connection with the fermion emission vertex is established. copyright 1988 Academic Press, Inc.
