Leonard Dupee White (1891-1958) was Ernest DeWitt Burton Distinguished Service Professor of Public Administration at the University of Chicago. He was one of the first to teach Public Administration in a university classroom and even in the early 1920s was becoming a leader among the political scientists who shared this interest. Professor White served on various governmental committees, both at the local and national levels. In 1939 President Roosevelt appointed him to the Committee on Civil Service Improvement, under the chairmanship of the Supreme Court Justice Stanley Reed, on which he served until 1941.
