James Van Benschoten Bennett (29 August 1894, in Silver Creek, New York, United States – 1978) was a leading American penal reformer and prison administrator who served as director of the Federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP) from 1937 to 1964. A U.S. Army Air Corps veteran from World War I, he became an Investigator for the U.S. Bureau of Efficiency in 1919 while studying law in night school at George Washington University. In 1928, he authored "The Federal Penal and Correctional Problem," a study that called for a number of reforms to the U.S. prison system whose population and responsibilities had expanded considerably with the enforcement of Prohibition. Bennett's study eventually led to the creation of Bureau of Prisons, which was originally ran by the Sanford Bates, the commissioner of the Massachusetts Department of Corrections.
