Query to get name a data type of a view

[stan]

When I run the following query,


SELECT column_name,data_type
FROM information_schema.columns
WHERE table_name = 'mfg_part_view';


I get the following result:

 column_name  |     data_type     
 --------------+-------------------
  mfg          | USER-DEFINED
  mfg_part_no  | character varying
  unit         | USER-DEFINED
  descrip      | character varying
  mfg_part_key | integer
(5 rows)

The SQL that creates this view is as follows:

CREATE VIEW mfg_part_view as
select
    mfg.name as mfg ,
        mfg_part.mfg_part_no ,
        costing_unit.unit ,
        mfg_part.descrip ,
        mfg_part.mfg_part_key
from mfg_part
right join costing_unit on
        mfg_part.unit_key = costing_unit.costing_unit_key
inner join mfg on
        mfg.mfg_key = mfg_part.mfg_key
WHERE mfg_part is NOT NULL
ORDER BY
        mfg.name ,
        mfg_part.mfg_part_no ;

Clearly that is not what I expected :-)

I need to return the name, and data type of each column for the specified
view. 

How can I do this?
