A portable desk and cooperative file folder holder for use in a vehicle seat or house chair. When used in a vehicle, the desk and file holder are placed in the passenger seat next to the driver. The desk includes a horizontally disposed rectangular base member which rests on the seat when in use, and a back member pivotally attached to the base member and which rests vertically disposed adjacent the back rest of the seat when in use. The back member is lockable into the vertical position. The base member serves as a work surface for papers or a note book computer and the like, and to support the back member. The back member serves to removably support and stabilize a file holder. The file holder is structured and positioned to orient held files so that the file identification tabs commonly at the top of each file are facing the driver seat. The file holder is readily removable from the back member and balance of the desk structure, and is structured with carrying handles to be readily transportable along with its contained files and other business items to a site remote of the vehicle absent the balance of the desk structure having to be removed from the vehicle and transported. The balance of the desk structure, which is foldable for compact storage, is also readily transportable from the vehicle, being separately hand portable from the file holder.
