Three presidents of the United States have been members of the Cosmos Club: William Howard Taft, Woodrow Wilson, and Herbert Hoover. Two others, Theodore Roosevelt and Calvin Coolidge, have had minor associations with the Club. |
The clubhouse these Presidents visited was located in Dolley Madison's house on Lafayette Square. |
