Eliot Ness Sun News, Cleveland, Ohio |
 | | Ness, best known for bringing down Al Capone -- sorry, he really wasn't the guy responsible -- also, of course, spent time as Cleveland's safety director and later ran for mayor of the city. |
 | | Ness lived in Coudersport, then and now a town of about 3,000, for the last 18 months of his life. |
 | | Ness arrived in Cleveland in 1936, hand-picked by then-Mayor Harold Burton to clean up what was then rampant police corruption. |
