Abstract
Table of Contents
From Hoover's first tentative media contacts in the 1930s to the Bureau's eponymous television series in the 1960s and 1970s, FBI officials labored mightily to control the Bureau's image -- efforts that put them not-so-squarely at the forefront of the emerging field of public relations.
