Barack Obama
The forty-fourth president of the United States (2009–2017) and the first African American to hold the office. A lawyer and the first Black president of the Harvard Law Review, he taught constitutional law at the University of Chicago and served as a senator from Illinois. In his first year in office he received the Nobel Peace Prize, and his defining law was the health-care reform that carries his name.
