Historical NoteReturn to Top

Arthur E. Demaray was a United States government administrator for the Department of the Interior, National Park Service. He spent most of his career as the number two person in the National Park Service during the agency's formative years, the New Deal period, and through the war time years as the agencies point of contact with Congress. He is known for his effectiveness as an administrator, his pioneering efforts that lead to the establishment of several national parks during these turbulent times, and his ability to work with the infamous Interior Secretary, Harold Ickes. Demaray was in U.S. government service for forty-eight years (1903-1951). His career began at the age of 16 in 1903 for the U.S. Geological Survey as a messenger boy; later he apprenticed and became a draftsman for the department. In 1917 he transferred to the newly formed National Park Service, where he proved to be a very effective administrator and political liaison; serving as Assistant Director and Director of the National Park Service until his retirement in 1951. Demaray was born on February 16, 1887 in Washington D.C and died in Tucson, Arizona in 1958.
