James Madison was the fourth president of the US and is the fourth president featured in the Presidential Dollar series. Serving as president from 1809-1817, Madison is often hailed as the "Father of the Constitution," since he was influential in the drafting of the US Constitution and an author for the Bill of Rights. Before Madison added all of these prestigious works to his portfolio, Madison was born to wealthy plantation owners in the middle of rural Virginia. Madison's father owned a large, slave-run plantation, as well as Madison's mother came from a lucrative plantation herself. Madison received his early education through an instructor, who was popular among the plantation families. Madison learned everything from Latin to geography to mathematics. His love for the studies sent him to New Jersey, where he attended Princeton University.
