Answer: Alvin Karpis

These were the most famous of the Great Depression-era desperados famous for robbing banks and other hold-ups in the American midwest and Chicago area, listed in order of their death.

Alvin Karpis, portrayed by Giovani Ribisi in 2009's "Public Enemies", was the leader of the Barker gang. He was captured in New Orleans by J. Edgar Hoover in 1936, although he wrote in his memoirs that he was held at gunpoint by other agents until Hoover arrived on the scene to nab the publicity. Karpis was in prison for 33 years, much of it at Alcatraz. He died in 1979 from an overdose of sleeping pills just after completing his memoirs.

Fun trivia fact: Allegedly, Kate "Ma" Barker played no role in the crimes committed by her sons' (Herman, Lloyd, Doc and Freddie) gang. J. Edgar Hoover invented the myth of Ma Barker as the "evil mastermind of the Barker-Karpis gang" to save his own skin after she was accidentally killed in an FBI raid targeting her boys. Karpis later confirmed Mrs. Barker had nothing to do with her sons' crimes.
