EDITORS COMMENTS
Woodrow Wilson: The Progressive President (1856-1924) This head-and-shoulders portrait of Woodrow Wilson, taken in July 1912, captures the essence of a man on the brink of greatness. Wilson, dressed in a formal suit and wearing a serious expression, gazes intently at the viewer with piercing eyes. The illustration, published in the renowned American satirical magazine Puck, showcases Wilson's strong character and intellectual prowess. At the time of this photograph, Wilson was a professor at Princeton University, having previously served as the Governor of New Jersey and as the President of Princeton's Board of Trustees. However, it was his political career that would make him a household name. Wilson was a leading figure in the Progressive Movement, advocating for reforms to address social and political issues, such as women's suffrage, the direct primary, and the initiative, referendum, and recall. Wilson's political ascent continued when he was elected as the 28th President of the United States in 1912. During his presidency, Wilson led the country through World War I, implementing policies that would forever change the political and social landscape of America. His administration saw the passage of the 16th Amendment, which established the federal income tax, and the creation of the Federal Reserve System. Wilson's vision for a new world order after the war resulted in the establishment of the League of Nations, an international organization aimed at maintaining peace and stability among nations. This portrait of Woodrow Wilson, captured in 1912, stands as a testament to a man who, through his unwavering determination and commitment to progress, left an indelible mark on American history.
