This edition of Biography, the long running documentary series from A&E, explores the life of Thomas Jefferson. Jefferson was the third President of the United States; principal author of the Declaration of Independence. In the spring of 1775, Jefferson was appointed as a delegate to the Second Continental Congress in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He was regarded as a superior writer and was charged with drafting a formal statement of the reasons for the colonies' impending break with Britain. In 1779, Jefferson was elected governor of Virginia. As the Revolutionary War drew to a close, Jefferson was called upon to serve as a delegate to the Continental Congress in December 1782. Shortly thereafter, he agreed to succeed Benjamin Franklin as the American minister to France, moving to Paris in 1784.
