- Judah_P._Benjamin abstract "Judah Philip Benjamin QC (August 6, 1811 – May 6, 1884) was a lawyer and politician who was successively United States Senator from Louisiana, a Cabinet officer of the Confederate States, and, after his escape to the United Kingdom at the end of the American Civil War, an English barrister. Benjamin was the first man professing the Jewish faith to be a member of the United States Senate, and the first to hold a Cabinet position in North America.Benjamin was born to a Sephardic Jewish family on St. Croix in the Danish West Indies at a time when it was occupied by Britain, during the Napoleonic Wars. Seeking greater opportunities, his family first moved to North Carolina and then south to South Carolina. He attended Yale, and after departing without graduating, moved to New Orleans.During his career in U.S. politics, Benjamin was a member of the Louisiana House of Representatives; in 1852, he was elected by the state legislature to the US Senate from Louisiana, the second senator in U.S. history to be born Jewish (after his second cousin, Senator David Levy Yulee of Florida, who no longer considered himself Jewish). Following the formation of the Confederate States of America in 1861, he was appointed by President Jefferson Davis to three different Cabinet posts in his administration. Benjamin was the first Jewish appointee to a Cabinet position in a North American government, and the first Jewish American to be seriously considered for nomination to the U.S. Supreme Court (he twice declined offers of nomination). Following his relocation to the United Kingdom, he became a distinguished barrister and in 1872 was appointed a Queen's Counsel.In 1883 he retired and moved permanently to Paris, where his wife and daughter had lived for years. He died the following year.".
