Default For whom was your High School named?

If your High school was named for somebody let us know the person and what they contributed to society. If it was not a HS any other school you went to will be fine.

I went to Samuel J Tilden High School, Brooklyn, NY.

Sammy J was a New York State governor who has the dubious distinction to have run for President 1876, won the popular vote but lost the election. He was the first but not the last. There was one other.... Who can name him?
