After Wright Patman initiated impeachment proceedings against this man, he resigned and was immediately appointed Ambassador to the UK. His one year stint as ambassador was marred by allegations that he overzealously advocated for the interests of Gulf Oil in Kuwait. The IRS unearthed evidence that this man financially backed James Renshaw Cox's unemployed "army" when FDR pushed an investigation into his tax returns. His (*) art collection formed the core of the National Gallery of Art, which he helped establish. He pushed the repeal of the excess-profits tax and massively lowered the income tax in an effort to reduce the national debt after World War I during his time as Secretary of the Treasury during the 1920s. For 10 points, name this American financier who names a Pittsburgh university with Andrew Carnegie.
