Biographical History
The Work Projects Administration (W.P.A.) was created by Franklin D. Roosevelt's presidential order in 1935 and became the largest New Deal agency, employing millions of people and affecting almost everywhere in the United States. The W.P.A. provided jobs and income to unemployed Americans during the Great Depression and was integral in building up the nation's infrastructure and operating arts, media, literacy, and recreation projects for Americans.
