Barack Obama is the 44th president of the United States and the first African American to hold the office.
Obama served as president from 2009 to 2017 after previously working as a community organizer, lawyer, and U.S. senator from Illinois. His administration introduced the Affordable Care Act, which expanded health insurance coverage for millions of Americans. He also received the Nobel Peace Prize in 2009 and remains an influential figure in American politics and public life.
