Barack Obama is an American politician and attorney who served as the 44th President of the United States from 2009 to 2017, becoming the first African American to hold the office. Born on August 4, 1961, in Honolulu, Hawaii, he graduated from Columbia University and Harvard Law School, where he was the first Black president of the Harvard Law Review. Obama began his political career as a community organizer in Chicago and served in the Illinois State Senate from 1997 to 2004 before being elected to the U.S. Senate. His presidential campaigns were marked by themes of hope and change, and his administration focused on healthcare reform, the economic recovery during the Great Recession, and progressive social policies such as the legalization of same-sex marriage. Known for his eloquence and ability to inspire, Obama left office with a complex legacy of both accomplishments and challenges, including the passage of the Affordable Care Act and ongoing debates over foreign policy and race relations.
