Early and family lifeHe was born to Laura (née Powell) and John Randolph Tucker in Winchester, Virginia, and received a LL.B. from Washington and Lee University School of Law in 1876. He married Henrietta Preston Johnson in 1877, and had several children, among them John Randolph Tucker (professor). In 1898, he purchased the Col Alto estate at Lexington, Virginia.[1] CareerTucker was elected to the 51st Congress as a Democrat and served four terms. He thereupon returned to Washington and Lee, where he became the professor of constitutional law and equity in 1897. Three years later he was made Dean of the Law School, in 1900. He moved to Washington, D.C. and became dean of the school of law at Columbian University (now George Washington University) from 1903 to 1905, when he became President of the Jamestown Exposition.

He was re-elected several times, serving until his own death in 1932. Works
