J. Edgar Hoover
John Edgar Hoover( January 1, 1895 – May 2, 1972) was the first Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation( FBI) of the United States and an American law enforcement administrator.
He was appointed as the director of the Bureau of Investigation – the FBI's predecessor – in 1924 and was instrumental in founding the FBI in 1935, where he remained director for another 37 years until his death in 1972 at the age of 77.
Hoover has been credited with building the FBI into a larger crime- fighting agency than it was at its inception and with instituting a number of modernizations to police technology, such as a centralized fingerprint file and forensic laboratories.
Later in life and after his death, Hoover became a controversial figure as evidence of his secretive abuses of power began to surface.
He was found to have exceeded the jurisdiction of the FBI, and to have used the FBI to harass political dissenters and activists, to amass secret files on political leaders, and to collect evidence using illegal methods.
Hoover consequently amassed a great deal of power and was in a position to intimidate and threaten others, including sitting presidents of the United States.

is a 1951 American film noir crime film directed by Gordon Douglas starring Frank Lovejoy, Dorothy Hart, Philip Carey and James Millican.
The film was produced by Bryan Foy who was head of Warners B picture unit until 1942.
It was also a radio show starring Dana Andrews with 78 episodes that ran from April 23, 1952 until October 14, 1953.
The film was based on a series of stories written by Matt Cvetic that appeared in "The Saturday Evening Post".
The stories were later turned into a best-selling book and radio series.
The story follows Cvetic, who infiltrated a local Communist Party cell for nine years and reported back to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) on their activities.
The film and radio show are, in part, artifacts of the McCarthy era, as well as a time capsule of American society during the Second Red Scare.
The purpose of both is partly to warn people about the threat of Communist subversion of American society.
The tone of the show is ultra-patriotic, with Communists portrayed as racist, vindictive, and tools of a totalitarian foreign power, the Soviet Union.
