My child-centered theories made teaching more human;
The highest-ranked admiral from once Navy crewman;
My library system shows math-based acumen;
And some thought I’d won over Harry S Truman.
Who am I?

DEWEY is correct. Way to go, Bronx Richie!

Line 1: John Dewey
Line 2: George Dewey
Line 3: Melvil Dewey
Line 4: Thomas Dewey
I was trying to work Scrooge McDuck’s nephew into the mix, but it led to an ill-advised reference to serum albumin.

Yes, and then there’s Charles O Dewey. How prominent was he? Enough to have Intermediate School 136 (Brooklyn) named after him, that’s all!
