| | Born on the Fourth of July |
 | | Apart from being recognizable figures in American popular culture and history, they share a birthday with our country: all were born on the Fourth of July. |
 | | But the prize for the person born on July 4 holding highest public office goes to Calvin Coolidge, born in Plymouth, Vermont on July 4, 1872. |
 | | Perhaps not surprisingly, he is the only president born on July 4; however, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, and James Monroe all died on the Fourth of July, as did modern-day lover of bucolic Americana, Charles Kuralt. |
