Answer:

After his presidency, William Howard Taft held the position of Chief Justice of the Supreme Court.

Explanation:

William Howard Taft was the twenty-seventh president of the United States (1909-1913) and Chief Justice of the Supreme Court (1921-1930). He is the only person who has held both positions.

He was born in 1857 in Cincinnati within the Taft family, with a long tradition in power in the United States. His father, Alphonso Taft, was a prominent Republican politician, who served as Secretary of War and Attorney General of the United States. William Taft graduated in Law from Yale University. Before being president, Taft was chosen to serve in the Supreme Court of Cincinnati in 1887. In 1890 he was appointed Attorney General of the United States and in 1891 judge of the Court of Appeals of the 6th Circuit. In 1901 President William McKinley appointed him governor of the Philippines, in 1904 Secretary of War and in 1906 temporary governor of Cuba at the request of the president of Cuba, Tomas Estrada Palma. He was elected in 1909 to be the President of the United States, succeeding Theodore Roosevelt.
