Mather came to Park Service May 16, 1917 - January Washington from Chicago in January Oral History 8, 1929 1915 as special assistant to Secretary of the Interior Franklin K. Lane for national park concerns. His vigorous efforts to build public and political support for the parks helped persuade Congress to create the National Park Service in 1916. Appointed the first NPS director in May 1917, he continued to promote park access, development, and use and contributed generously to the parks from his personal fortune. During his tenure the service's domain expanded eastward with the addition of Shenandoah, Great Smoky Mountains, and Mammoth Cave national parks. Periodically disabled by manic- depression, Mather left office in January 1929 after suffering a stroke and died a year later.

Albright, January 12, 1929 - August 9, 1933 Horace M. Albright came to the Horace M. Albright, Interior Department from California in January 12, 1929 - 1913 at the age of 23. After Mather's August 9, 1933 arrival Albright assisted him in overseeing the department's national parks and monuments and working for passage of the National Park Service legislation. Appointed NPS assistant director in May 1917, he acted as director for nearly two years while Mather was disabled by depression and launched the bureau's operations. From 1919 to 1929 he superintended Yellowstone National Park but continued to play a leading role in servicewide affairs. As Mather's successor in January 1929, he engineered the further expansion of an essentially western, natural park system to a truly national park system encompassing historic sites and memorials. He left for a private business career in August 1933 after obtaining the Agriculture and War departments' national monuments and military parks and the national capital parks, but he retained close ties to the NPS until his death in 1987.

Cammerer replaced Albright Arno B. Cammerer, as assistant director in 1919, serving August 10, 1933 - as Mather's right-hand man in August 9, 1940 Washington and acting for him in his frequent absences over the next decade. He advanced to the new rank of associate director in 1928, then succeeded Albright as director in August 1933. Under his leadership the NPS became involved with recreational area planning and management, supervised the Civilian Conservation Corps in both national and state parks, and began to survey and record historic sites and buildings outside the parks. Strained relations with Secretary of the Interior Harold L. Ickes impaired his effectiveness and health, http://www.cr.nps.gov/history/hisnps/NPSHistory/directors.htm 2/24/2014 National rark service History: Directors 01 National rark Service Page 3 or 10 and he stepped down after a heart attack in 1940 to become the service's eastern regional director. He died in that position the following year. Newton B. Drury, August 20, 1940 - March 31, 1951 Newton B. Drury declined Newton B. Drury, appointment as director in 1933 but August 20, 1940 - accepted the job in 1940. He was the March 31, 1951 first director without prior national park responsibilities but came with strong conservationist credentials, having served as executive secretary of the Save-the-Redwoods League in California. During World War II he successfully resisted most demands for consumptive uses of park resources. Less eager than his predecessors to expand the park system, he opposed NPS involvement with areas he judged not to meet national park standards. Differences with Secretary of the Interior Oscar L. Chapman over Chapman's support for dams in Dinosaur National Monument contributed to Drury's resignation in 1951. He died in 1978. Arthur E. Demaray, April 1, 1951 - December 8, 1951 Formerly a draftsman with the U.S. Geological Survey, Arthur E. Demaray moved to the NPS when its headquarters was first staffed in 1917. His brief tenure as NPS director in 1951 before his planned retirement was a reward for his long and distinguished service, after 1933 as associate director. In the second spot during the tumultuous New Deal and the difficult wartime years (when he remained in Washington while the headquarters office relocated to Chicago), he proved an extremely effective administrator. Perhaps his greatest accomplishment was to maintain good working relations with Harold Ickes during the irascible secretary's 13-year regime (1933-46). Demaray died in 1958. Conrad L.
