Best Answer

There were three authors of the Federalist Papers.

Alexander Hamilton and James Madison wrote the majority of the essays (80 of the 85), but John Jaycontributed five pieces on foreign affairs and on the Senate (Federalist Nos. 2-5 and 64). Jay may have intended to make a larger contribution, but was ill from November 1787 through mid-February 1788.
