There were 2.
James B. Adams served as acting FBI Director for SEVEN WHOLE DAYS in 1978.
Thomas J Pickard was the acting FBI director for those 2 and 1/2 months before 9/11. Interesting timing there as he was replaced on Sept. 4, 2001.
So, for 53 years since Hoover died, the FBI has been led by a Democrat for less than 3 months.
