Nusbaum, (1887-1976), a National Park Service Archaeologist, was the first director of the Laboratory of Anthropology (1929-1935).
Born in Greeley, Colorado in 1887. In 1907 became an archaeological assistant at Mesa Verde National Park. In 1909 became an archaeologist. Appointed superintendent at Mesa Verde National Park in 1921, continued in that role until the late 1940s. Retired from the National Park Service in 1957.
Nusbaum was director of Region 13 of the Public Works of Art Project (PWAP). It was the first of the New Deal art programs, established under the Department of the Treasury in December 1933 to assist unemployed artists by enabling them to work on the decoration of non-federal public buildings. Although it lasted only until the following summer, it engaged nearly 4,000 artists in all parts of the country and served as an important precedent for subsequent federal art programs, such as the Federal Art Project of the Works Progress Administration. It existed until June 1934.
