Future President Garfield at age 16
James A. Garfield, born on November 19, 1831, in Ohio, was the 20th president of the United States. Coming from humble beginnings, he worked as a teacher and a Union general during the Civil War before launching a successful political career. A skilled orator and a strong advocate for civil rights, he was elected president in 1880.
Garfield’s presidency was tragically short. Just four months into his term, he was shot by Charles Guiteau, a disgruntled office seeker. He fought for his life for over two months while the nation anxiously followed his condition, but he ultimately succumbed to infection on September 19, 1881.
Though his time in office was brief, Garfield was known for his efforts to reform the civil service system and promote education. His story remains one of resilience, intelligence, and unfulfilled potential, leaving many to wonder what he might have accomplished had he lived longer.
