Enjoy Richard Marold's portrayal of
Franklin Delano Roosevelt |
FDR was elected President an unprecedented four times serving from March 4, 1933 to April 12, 1945 - twelve tumultuous years in American history. FDR first navigated the country through the muddy waters of the Great Depression, struggling to clean up the Unites States economy. Next he steered the country through the battlefields of World War II, helping to free a shaken Europe from tyranny and at the same time fighting a war against the Japanese in the Pacific.
No man shaped the American presidency in the 20th century more decisively than FDR.
