Benjamin Franklin

was born in Milk Street, Boston, on

January 6, 1706. His father, Josiah Franklin, was a tallow chandler who

married twice, and of his seventeen children Benjamin was the youngest

son. His schooling ended at ten, and at twelve he was bound apprentice to

his brother James, a printer, who published the "New England Courant."

To this journal he became a contributor, and later was for a time its

nominal editor. But the brothers quarreled, and Benjamin ran away, going

first to New York, and thence to Philadelphia, where he arrived in October,

1723. He soon obtained work as a printer, but after a few months he was

induced by Governor Keith to go to London, where, finding Keith's

promises empty, he again worked as a compositor till he was brought back

to Philadelphia by a merchant named Denman, who gave him a position in

his business. On Denman's death he returned to his former trade, and

shortly set up a printing house of his own from which he published "The

Pennsylvania Gazette," to which he contributed many essays, and which

he made a medium for agitating a variety of local reforms. In 1732 he

began to issue his famous "Poor Richard's Almanac" for the enrichment of

which he borrowed or composed those pithy utterances of worldly wisdom

which are the basis of a large part of his popular reputation. In 1758, the

year in which he ceases writing for the Almanac, he printed in it "Father

Abraham's Sermon," now regarded as the most famous piece of literature

produced in Colonial America.

Meantime Franklin was concerning himself more and more with

public affairs. He set forth a scheme for an Academy, which was taken up

later and finally developed into the University of Pennsylvania; and he

founded an "American Philosophical Society" for the purpose of enabling

scientific men to communicate their discoveries to one another. He himself

had already begun his electrical researches, which, with other scientific

inquiries, he called on in the intervals of money-making and politics to the

end of his life. In 1748 he sold his business in order to get leisure for study,

having now acquired comparative wealth; and in a few years he had made

discoveries that gave him a reputation with the learned throughout Europe.

Dr.Benjamin Franklin was one of the Founding Fathers of the United States.A noted polymath,Franklin was a leading author,printer,political theorist,politician,postmaster,scientist,musician,inventor,satirist,civic activist,statesman,and diplomat.As a scientist,he was a major figure in the American Enlightenment and the history of physics for his discoveries and theories regarding electricity.He invented the lightning rod,bifocals,the Franklin stove,a carriage odometer,and the glass 'armonica'.He formed both the first public lending library in America and the first fire department in Pennsylvania.

Franklin earned the title of "The First American" for his early and indefatigable campaigning for colonial unity; as an author and spokesman in London for several colonies,then as the first United States Ambassador to France,he exemplified the emerging American nation.Franklin was foundational in defining the American ethos as a marriage of the practical and democratic 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.In the words of historian Henry Steele Commager,"In a Franklin could be merged the virtues of Puritanism without its defects,the illumination of the Enlightenment without its heat."
