Born on November 19, 1831, in a log cabin in Moreland Hills, Ohio - James A. Garfield was the 20th president of the United States. Growing up in humble beginnings, he overcame significant challenges to become a prominent figure in American politics. Garfield served in the Ohio Senate before his election to the presidency in 1880. His deep ties to Ohio shaped his political career and ideals, reflecting the values of perseverance and hard work. During his presidency, Garfield advocated for civil service reform and fought against corruption, though his term was tragically cut short by assassination just months after he took office. His legacy remains a testament to his commitment to public service and the state of Ohio.
