Who was the president to create the CIA?

The CIA was formed in 1947, when Truman was in office, by the National Security Act of 1947. However, the predecessor to the CIA, the Office of Strategic Services, had been around since 1942, when Franklin Roosevelt was president. Roosevelt was rather more directly instrumental in the founding of the OSS than Truman was in the founding of the CIA.


Is CIA a part of the Department of Justice?

No - the CIA is an independent agency within the Executive Branch of the U.S. Government. It is not uncommon, however, to have an active duty military officer (must be 4-star rank) to be appointed as the CIA's head, as there are provisions in U.S. law for serving military officers to be appointed to civilian agency posts. The most recent examples are General David Petraeus, newly appointed head of the CIA; and former General Colin Powell, who served as National Security Advisor to President Reagan while still a serving Army officer.
