About Franklin D. Roosevelt

Portrait of Franklin D. Roosevelt
Leon Perskie · CC BY 2.0

President of the United States from 1933 to 1945 · 1882 – 1945

Franklin Roosevelt was paralysed by illness at thirty-nine and elected president twelve years later, at the depth of the Depression. He was elected four times, built the New Deal and Social Security, and led the United States through most of the Second World War, dying weeks before it ended in Europe. He conducted radio fireside chats to explain policy directly. He also authorised the internment of Japanese Americans. His first inaugural line about fear is quoted more than any other American sentence of the century.
