Former President William Howard Taft was the tenth Chief Justice of the Supreme Court. He served from 1921 until a few months before his death in 1930. Taft was responsible for convincing Congress to fund construction of the US Supreme Court building. Unfortunately, he didn't live to see the result of his effort; the Supreme Court Building opened in 1935.
