Richard J. Daley
Richard J. Daley served as mayor of the city of Chicago for 21 years, the second longest tenure of Chicago mayors behind only his son, Richard M. Daley.  Born and raised in Chicago, "Da Mare" lived at this address with his wife, Elanore "Sis" Daley since 1936.  Historian Michael Beschloss called him the "pre-eminent mayor of the 20th century," and Chicago journalist Elizabeth Taylor said "because of Mayor Daley, Chicago did not become a Detroit or Cleveland."
