According to Wikipedia.org: John Edgar Hoover was the founder of the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation in its present form and its director from May 10, 1924, until his death in 1972. Hoover was appointed the first director of the FBI by President Calvin Coolidge. During his tenure, Hoover attained extraordinary power and unusual discretionary authority, while also feuding with many adversaries. It is because of Hoover that, since his tenure, FBI directors have been limited to ten-year terms.
