Collection Historical Note
James Van Benschoten Bennett was born on August 28, 1894 in Silver Creek, New York. He served as an aviation cadet in World War I. Bennett graduated from Brown University in 1918 and later received a law degree from George Washington University. In 1919 his federal government career began following his appointment as an Investigator for the U.S. Bureau of Efficiency. In 1928 Bennett penned “The Federal Penal and Correction Problem” which served as a vital catalyst for the creation of the Federal Bureau of Prisons.
The creation of the Federal Prison Industries, Inc. in 1934 is considered as one of Bennett’s most significant achievements. He worked as Assistant Director for the Federal Bureau of Prisons up until 1937 when he was named Director following Sanford Bates’ retirement. As Director, Bennett was a very active reformer of correctional policies and an advocate for the rights of prison inmates. He was instrumental in opening special institutions for juveniles, rehabilitation centers and halfway houses. These efforts are reflected in his mantra that “We must not rob a man of all hope.” The first “open prison’ was instituted by Bennett in 1938 in Seagonville, Texas. This was a no walls, no bars and a gun free facility. He became president of the National Parole Conference in 1939 and later served as President of the Washington Council of Social Agencies. The Celler-Hennings Act was enacted in 1958 as a result of Bennett’s advocacy for more equity in the process of federal sentencing. The Act empowered the Federal Bureau of Prisons to make sentencing recommendations to the judiciary as well as recommendations relating to sentencing reform.
Much of Bennett’s work in the criminal justice system, and more specifically his work with inmates, focused on creating an environment that was best suited to the rehabilitation of prison inmates. He was also an advocate for improved communication systems within the Federal Bureau of Prisons, with the goal of creating a more cohesive and effective network. Another major contribution Bennett made during his tenure as Director was to continue the advancement of the inmate classification system that was vital in focusing on the specific needs of prisoners and attempting to satisfy those needs.
Bennett served as the head of several other organizations during his career. He was the President of the National Association for Better Broadcasting, the Joint Commission on Correctional Manpower and Training and the American Correctional Association. Bennett was honored with The President’s Award for Distinguished Federal Civilian Service by President Eisenhower in 1959. He also received the Navy’s Distinguished Public Service Award and the Selective Service Medal.
Bennett retired as Director of the Federal Bureau of Prisons in 1964. However, his speaking engagements and his writings on prison related issues allowed him to remain very much a part of the criminal justice system. In 1970 he wrote I Chose Prison, which continued his focus on the well-being and proper treatment of prisoners.
James V. Bennett died in Maryland on November 19, 1978 leaving his wife, Olympia, a son, Edmund and two daughters, Ann Humbert and Brenda Bell.
