Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924) was the 28th President of the United States, serving from 1913 to 1921. He was born in Virginia and grew up in Georgia and South Carolina. Educated at Davidson and Princeton, he went to law school for a year but then got a PhD in history and political science at Johns Hopkins. He taught at Cornell, Bryn Mawr, Wesleyan, and Princeton, where he rose to become President. A leader of the Progressive movement, he was elected Governor of New Jersey. Two years later, he won the Democratic nomination for the Presidency on the 46th ballot, and defeated sitting President William Howard Taft and former President Theodore Roosevelt in a three-way election with less than 42% of the vote.
