Portrait of Benjamin Fran...
Benjamin Franklin

Benjamin Franklin was born on January 17, 1706 on Milk Street in Boston, Massachusetts; and died on April 17, 1790.

He was a man of many talents and interests. He maintained a couple of career being a statesman, philosopher, scientist, inventor, economist, business strategist, diplomat, humorist and musician.

His family considered a second-generation immigrant, as his father came from England to Boston in 1683.

Benjamin Franklin attended Boston Latin School but he didn't graduate. He continued his self-education through various readings and writings.

He learned printing from his older brother, James Franklin when he founded the weekly newspaper "New-England Courant" in 1721. Benjamin Franklin fled from his brother's abuse and became a newspaper editor, printer, and merchant in Philadelphia.

Benjamin Franklin founded the first "public lending library" called the Library Company of Philadelphia in 1731 and the "fire department" in 1736. He founded the American Philosophical Society in 1743, to be the political discussion club known as the "Junto" at the same time. He published "Poor Richard's Almanac" for 25 years, as well as "Pennsylvania Gazette".

Benjamin Franklin considered as a leader of the Enlightenment to gain the recognition of scientists and intellectuals across Europe. He became an agent in London before the Revolution and a Minister to France (1776-1785) during the Revolution.

He invented the idea of an American nation, and he secured the French alliance during the American Revolution that made independence possible. He played the major role in the development of positive Franco-American relations.

Benjamin Franklin was Postmaster General under the Continental Congress from 1775-1776 and President of the Supreme Executive Council of Pennsylvania from 1785 to his death in 1790. He played also the major role in establishing the University of Pennsylvania and Franklin and Marshall College.

Thomas Jefferson said about Benjamin Franklin: "The greatest man and ornament of the age and country in which he lived." Scottish philosopher David Hume called him "America's first man of letters."
