I had heard about him when I was in college, but had no idea he was still alive.
He has a remarkable relationship to a US President.
Anybody know this without looking?
Suit guy hit it. President John Tyler (b. 1790) had a son at the age of 63, Lyon Tyler (b.1853). His son, Harrison, was born in 1928, when Lyon was 75.
Whatever other distinctions the Tyler family has, being active in the later years is clearly one of them.
