Francis Scott Key is best known for writing the "Star-Spangled Banner," the national anthem of the United States, inspired by his observations during the Battle of Fort McHenry in 1814. He was also a prominent lawyer and played a role in advocating for the abolition of slavery, though his views were complex and evolved over time. Additionally, Key served in various public roles, including as the U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia. His legacy is primarily tied to his literary contribution to American patriotism.
