Benjamin Ward
Definition(s)
- Benjamin Ward's route to becoming New York City's first African American police commissioner on January 1, 1984, is more than the traditional story of starting as a police officer and rising to the top job. Along the way he overcame the hostility of White colleagues and achieved a number of firsts in New York City and New York State criminal justice agencies.
