The leader of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) during the Palmer Raids was J. Edgar Hoover. He was appointed as the head of the Bureau of Investigation in 1924 and played a significant role in the raids, which aimed to capture and deport radical leftists and anarchists in the United States following World War I. Hoover's actions during this period helped to shape the FBI's focus on domestic security and counterterrorism.
