Jimmy Carter, 39th U.S. President and Nobel laureate, dies at 100; notable for post-presidency humanitarian efforts, peace work.

Former U.S. President Jimmy Carter has passed away at the age of 100.

Carter’s presidency from 1977 to 1981 faced significant challenges, including the Iran hostage crisis and economic difficulties.

Despite these issues, he brokered a historic peace agreement between Israel and Egypt and continued to focus on humanitarian work post-presidency.

Born in Plains, Georgia, Carter took over his family farm after serving in the U.S. Navy.

He entered politics, serving in the Georgia State Senate and later as governor. His rise to the presidency was marked by his campaigning as an outsider in the wake of the Watergate scandal.

Carter’s presidency was marked by high inflation, an ongoing energy crisis, and the infamous hostage situation in Iran.

Although he faced criticism for his handling of these crises, he had notable achievements such as the Camp David Accords and domestic deregulation efforts.

Following his presidency, Carter became known for his extensive humanitarian efforts through the Carter Center, focusing on global health and human rights. His work earned him the Nobel Peace Prize in 2002.

Carter remained active in his community and church and continued to speak publicly even after a cancer diagnosis in 2015.

He is remembered as an influential figure not just in American politics but also in humanitarian efforts across the globe. Carter is survived by his children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren.
