Benjamin Franklin. Franklin was a renowned polymath and a leading author, printer, political theorist, politician, freemason, postmaster, scientist, inventor, civic activist, statesman, and diplomat. Franklin was foundational in defining the American ethos as a marriage of the practical values of thrift, hard work, education, community spirit, self-governing institutions, and opposition to authoritarianism both political and religious, with the scientific and tolerant values of the Enlightenment. He organized and was the first secretary of the American Philosophical Society and was elected president in 1769. He was active in community affairs and colonial and state politics, as well as national and international affairs. His colorful life and legacy of scientific and political achievement, and his status as one of America's most influential Founding Fathers have seen Franklin honored more than two centuries after his death on coinage and the $ 100 bill, warships, and the names of many towns, counties, educational institutions, and corporations, as well as countless cultural references.
