Bible Park was named after James A. Bible, a Denver Parks employee, supervisor and consultant for more than fifty years. After a few months at Denver's City Park Zoo, he was transferred to the nearby City Park shops where he worked for sixteen years. From 1937 until 1952, he was a superintendent of several Denver park districts. He became the general superintendent in 1952, and remained there until his retirement in 1970. His residence during these years was in City Park. Built for City Park's Superintendents, its listing on the National Register identifies it as the Graham-Bible House; named after the two superintendents who had lived there since its construction.
