W. Mark Felt : ウィキペディア英語版
Mark Felt

William Mark Felt, Sr. (August 17, 1913 – December 18, 2008) was a Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) special agent who retired as the Bureau's Deputy Director in 1973. After keeping secret for 30 years his involvement with reporters Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein, Felt admitted to being the Watergate scandal's whistleblower, "Deep Throat," on May 31, 2005.
Felt worked in several FBI field offices prior to his promotion to the Bureau's headquarters in Washington, D.C. During the early investigation of the Watergate scandal (1972–1974), and shortly after the death of longtime FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover on May 2, 1972, Felt was the Bureau's Associate Director, the second-ranking post in the FBI. While serving as Associate Director, Felt provided the ''Washington Post'' with critical information that eventually led to the resignation of President Richard M. Nixon in 1974. In 1980, Felt was convicted of violating the civil rights of people thought to be associated with members of the Weather Underground Organization, by ordering FBI agents to search their homes as part of an attempt to prevent bombings. He was ordered to pay a fine, but was pardoned by President Ronald Reagan during his appeal. In 2006, he published an update of his 1979 autobiography, ''The FBI Pyramid''. His last book, written with John O'Connor, is titled ''A G-Man's Life.'' On June 14, 2012, the FBI released Felt's personnel file at the agency, covering the period from 1941 to 1978. It also released files pertaining to an extortion threat made against Felt in 1956.〔(40 years later, remembering Watergate scandal's 'Deep Throat' 40 years later, remembering Watergate scandal's 'Deep Throat' CNN June 15, 2012 )〕
==Family and early career==
Born on August 17, 1913, in Twin Falls, Idaho,〔 Felt was the son of carpenter and building contractor Mark Earl Felt and his wife, the former Rose R. Dygert.〔 His paternal grandfather was a Free Will Baptist minister.〔(wargs.com )〕 His maternal grandparents were born in Canada and Scotland; through his maternal grandfather, Felt was a relative of Revolutionary War general Nicholas Herkimer.〔 After graduating from Twin Falls High School in 1931, he attended the University of Idaho in Moscow, and was a member and president of the Gamma Gamma chapter of the Beta Theta Pi fraternity. He received a BA in 1935.〔
Felt went to Washington, D.C., to work in the office of Democratic U.S. Senator James P. Pope. In 1938, Felt married Audrey Robinson of Gooding, whom he had known when they were undergraduates at UI. She had come to Washington to work at the Bureau of Internal Revenue, and they were wed by the chaplain of the United States House of Representatives, the Rev. Sheara Montgomery.〔 Audrey, who died in 1984, and Felt had two children, Joan and Mark.
Felt stayed on with Pope's successor in the Senate, David Worth Clark (D-Idaho).〔 Felt attended The George Washington University Law School at night, earning his law degree in 1940, and was admitted to the District of Columbia bar in 1941.〔
Upon graduation, Felt took a position at the Federal Trade Commission, but did not enjoy the work. His workload was very light. He was assigned a case to investigate whether a toilet paper brand called "Red Cross" was misleading consumers into thinking it was endorsed by the American Red Cross. Felt wrote in his memoir:
:My research, which required days of travel and hundreds of interviews, produced two definite conclusions:
:1. Most people ''did'' use toilet tissue.
:2. Most people ''did not'' appreciate being asked about it.
:That was when I started looking for other employment.〔
He applied for a job with the FBI in November 1941 and was accepted. His first day at the Bureau was January 26, 1942.
