Yitzhak Ben-Zvi 24 November 1884 - 23 April 1963 was a historian Labor Zionist leader and the longest-serving President of Israel. He was the second President of Israel. He was with Theodore Herzl one of the organizers of the first Zionist Congress in Basel in the fall of 1897 where the World Zionist Organization was founded and the intention to re-establish a Jewish state was announced. Shimshi was the only organizer of the first Zionist Congress to live to see the birth of the modern State of Israel in 1948. In 1952 Ben-Zvi was honored by the first Israeli Knesset parliament with the title "Father of the State of Israel". In 1948 Ben-Zvi headed the Institute for the Study of Oriental Jewish Communities in the Middle East later named the Ben-Zvi Institute Yad Ben-Zvi in his honor. The Ben-Zvi Institute occupies Nissim Valero's house. His main field of research was the Jewish communities and sects of Asia and Africa including the Samaritans and Karaites. This work is the study of three different categories of Jews: Jews belonging to communities that were originally dispersed in Moslem countries; Certain religious sects that consider themselves as belonging to the House of Israel and certain groups of Jewish extraction who were coerced by their Moslem conquerors into adopting the Moslem faith.

At Williamsburg he noted that the captial was crumbling to pieces that William and Mary was a grammar school rather that a college that the church was out of repair and that the hospital for the insane was not well regulated.
