J. Edgar Hoover was a prominent American law-enforcement administrator who served as the final Director of the Bureau of Investigation (BOI) and the first Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). He played a key role in founding the FBI in 1935 and remained as director for 37 years. Hoover expanded the FBI’s crime-fighting capabilities and implemented modernizations in policing technology.
