All of these methods illuminate this period of state transformation and perceptions of that emergent state in the years of the first New Deal. The creation of G-men and gangsters as cultural heroes in this period not only explores the Depression-era obsession with crime and celebrity but it also lends insight on how citizens understood a nation undergoing large political and social changes.

It is important to remember the original 'war on crime' in the 1930s-and the opportunities it afforded to New Dealers and established bureaucrats like J.
