He was member of the New York State Assembly in 1865, 1866 (New York Co., 10th D.), and 1867 (New York Co., 14th D.).

He was a member of the New York State Senate from 1868 to 1871, sitting in the 91st, 92nd, 93rd and 94th New York State Legislatures.

He was a New York City Tax Commissioner for five years, and acted as counsel for State commissions to revise the tax laws.

Creamer was elected as a Democrat to the 43rd United States Congress, holding office from March 4, 1873, to March 3, 1875.

He was again a member of the State Assembly (New York Co., 14th D.) in 1889.
