Biography

Warren Gamaliel Harding (November 2, 1865 – August 2, 1923) was the 29th President of the 
United States (1921–1923). A Republican from Ohio, Harding was an influential self-made 
newspaper publisher. He served in the Ohio Senate (1899–1903), as the 28th Lieutenant 
Governor of Ohio (1903–1905) and as a U.S. Senator (1915–1921). He was also the first 
incumbent United States Senator and the first newspaper publisher to be elected President.

Marriage and family:
On July 8, 1891, Harding married Florence Kling DeWolfe, the daughter of his nemesis 
(and hers as well), Amos Hall Kling. Florence Kling DeWolfe was a divorcée, five years 
Harding's senior, and the mother of a young son, Marshall Eugene DeWolfe."Flossie's" first, 
and compulsory, marriage, to an alcoholic, had been soundly condemned by her father, to the 
point of her disownment. Her mother remained loyal and provided support nevertheless.

Presidential pets

Harding and Laddie Boy
He may not have been the Secretary for Canine Affairs, but Warren G. Harding’s Airedale had
 his own carved chair which he sat in during many cabinet meetings.

Within the first days of the Harding presidency the dog had almost as much press coverage as 
the new president. In fact, on Hardings first day in office, The New York Times reported, 
”Next to the hope of catching glimpses of the president and Mrs. Harding, the chief interest 
for sightseers was Caswell Laddie Boy, an Airedale terrier of aristocratic lineage…. A gift
 from Marshall Sheppey of Toledo.
