Born on May 8, 1884 in Lamar, Missouri, Harry Truman to this day is the only U.S. President from the Show Me state. He worked in a wide variety of jobs as a young man, from a timekeeper for the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railway to a mail room employee for the Kansas City Star. After gaining leadership skills as a captain in World War I, Truman went on to pursue a career in politics. He eventually assumed the presidency after Franklin Roosevelt's death in 1945.
