Jimmy Carter
Georgia peanut farmer
Jimmy Carter was the 39th president of the United States, serving from 1977 to 1981.
A Georgia peanut farmer and former governor, he won the presidency in the aftermath of Watergate, campaigning as a Washington outsider.
His single term was marked by the Iran hostage crisis and economic stagflation, leading to his defeat by Ronald Reagan.
After leaving office, Carter became widely admired for decades of humanitarian work, including his involvement with Habitat for Humanity and international election monitoring, earning him the Nobel Peace Prize in 2002.
