The President's Foreign Intelligence Advisory Board is "a group of independent, non-governmental experts whose job is to evaluate the quality and adequacy of American foreign intelligence efforts. By communicating with department heads, conducting onsite inspections, and accessing classified information, PIAB looks for deficiencies in the collection, analysis, and reporting of intelligence."[1]

History
In January 1956 President Dwight D. Eisenhower created the agency, originally known as the President's Board of Consultants on Foreign Intelligence Activities (PBCFIA).[2] The first board under chair James Killian were:[3]
- Richard Conolly
- Jimmy Doolittle
- Benjamin Fairless
- John Hull
- Joseph P. Kennedy
- Robert Lovett
- Edward Ryerson
In May 1961, President John F. Kennedy renamed it to the President's Foreign Intelligence Advisory Board (PFIAB).[4] The board exists at the pleasure of the President, who can change its size and portfolio so in 1977 President Jimmy Carter abolished the PFIAB, but President Ronald Reagan re-established it later.[5]
On February 29, 2008, President George W. Bush renamed the agency to its present form.[6]
Most of the board's work is secret, but one very public investigation involved the loss of U.S. nuclear secrets to China from the Los Alamos National Laboratory during the 1990s.[7]
Intelligence Oversight Board
PIAB has a subgroup called the Intelligence Oversight Board.
