Joe Biden served as the forty-sixth president of the United States. When he took office, he inherited a country reeling from the worst pandemic in a century, the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression, and the worst assault on our democracy since the Civil War.

By the time he left office, he had overseen the largest vaccination program in the history of America, built the U.S. economy to become the strongest in the world, and preserved the nation’s democracy. During his presidency, Biden passed historic legislation, including the biggest investment in America’s infrastructure since Eisenhower, the biggest investment in American manufacturing in a generation, and the biggest investment in the climate in the history of the world.

Under Biden’s leadership, child poverty was cut in half, the cost of seniors’ prescription drugs decreased, more people had health insurance than ever before, and a record sixteen million jobs were created.

Before his presidency, Biden served as a U.S. senator for Delaware from 1973 to 2009, when he was sworn in as vice president of the United States. He served as vice president to President Barack Obama from 2009 to 2017.

Biden was born in Scranton, Pennsylvania, and grew up in Claymont, Delaware. He is the author of Promises to Keep: On Life and Politics; Promise Me, Dad: A Year of Hope, Hardship, and Purpose; and the forthcoming, Promise Me, America (on sale November 17, 2026). He resides in Wilmington, Delaware, with his wife, Jill.
