Biography

Newton Bishop Drury was born in San Francisco in 1889 to prominent newspaperman and politician Wells Drury and his wife, Elvira Lorraine Bishop. He graduated from the University of California, Berkeley in 1912 and served in the U.S. Army Balloon Corps during World War I. The destruction he witnessed during the war inspired him to become a staunch conservationist. Drury married Elizabeth Frances Shilling in 1918; the couple had two children.

In 1919, Newton and his brother Aubrey founded a public relations and advertising firm, the Drury Brothers Company. One of their clients was the Save the Redwoods League, a California organization dedicated to preserving redwood forests. Newton became the League’s first Executive Director in 1919, serving in that capacity until 1940. During his tenure at the League, Drury helped direct the legislative campaign for a comprehensive state park program in California. He served as Secretary to the California State Parks Committee from 1925-1927, and as a Land Acquisitions Officer for the California State Park Commission from approximately 1928-1940.

When Newton Drury was appointed Director of the National Park Service in August 1940, his brother Aubrey, the Administrative Secretary, assumed management of the League. Newton Drury served as director of the National Park Service until March 31, 1951. Disagreements with Secretary of the Interior Oscar L. Chapman over dams in Dinosaur National Monument contributed to his resignation. That same year, Drury became chief of California’s Division of Beaches and Parks. He retired from the Park Service and resumed his role as Executive Director of the Save the Redwoods League when Aubrey died in 1959. Newton subsequently served as League President from 1971-1975, and Chair of the Board until his death in 1978.

Drury served terms as vice president of the American Forestry Association, director of the National Conference on State Parks, held membership on the Yosemite National Park Advisory Board, worked as a research associate in Primitive Landscape for the Carnegie Institute, and was an honorary life member of the Sierra Club. He was a two-time recipient of the Pugsley Medal, an award that honors champions of parks and conservation.
