Tomas Garrigue Masaryk
Prof. Dr. Tomáš Garrigue Masaryk (7 March 1850 Hodonín - 14 September 1937 Lány) was an educator, politician and philosopher. In 1918 he became the first Czechoslovak president.
From the age of 15, he supported himself as a home tutor for the children of wealthy parents. At the grammar school in Brno he was supported by one of them, the family of the police director Anton Le Monnier, with whom he went to Vienna in 1869 to finish his studies at the Academic Gymnasium. After graduation (1872), he began his studies at the Faculty of Philosophy. During his studies he met Franz Brentano, a new professor of philosophy who came to Vienna in April 1874.
After the death of Anton Le Monnier, in 1873, he found a new lucrative position as hofmistre in the family of Rudolf Schlessinger, general councilor of the Anglo-Austrian Bank, whose son he taught. As a reward for the young Schlessinger's successful graduation, after Masaryk's doctorate (1876) they went together on a tour of Italy and a year's stay at the University of Leipzig. There Masaryk met Charlotte Garrigue, the daughter of a New York businessman, and they were engaged on 10 August 1877.
On April 29, 1918, Masaryk arrived in the U.S. and on May 5, to his surprise, he was received in Chicago by cheering crowds, asked for speeches, and showered with flowers. He experienced a similar reception by a quarter of a million compatriots on the streets of New York. In America, he organized a great campaign of persuasion among American Czechs and Slovaks in support of an independent state. On May 30, they signed an agreement on a common state in Pittsburgh. In Philadelphia, he was elected president of the Democratic Association of Small Central European and South Slavic Nations and signed and proclaimed their Declaration of Independence at the Liberty Bell.
