Edward Everett (April 11, 1794 - January 15, 1865) was an American politician, pastor, educator, diplomat, and orator from Massachusetts. Everett, as a Whig, served as US. Representative, US. Senator, the 15th Governor of Massachusetts, Minister to Great Britain, and United States Secretary of State. He also taught at Harvard University and served as its president. Everett was one of the great American orators of the antebellum and Civil War eras. He is often remembered today as the featured orator at the dedication ceremony of the Gettysburg National Cemetery in 1863, where he spoke for over two hours-immediately before President Abraham Lincoln delivered his famous two-minute Gettysburg Address.
