The Articles of Confederation were written by one representative from each colony. John Dickinson, the delegate from Delaware, was the principal writer.

The Constitution was written as a group effort by the men who were present at the Constitutional Convention (55 delegates appointed by the states). The "Father of the Constitution" is known as James Madison, as he sketched the initial draft.
