Jimmy Carter's political career peaked in 1977 when he became the 39th president of the United States. During his time in the Oval Office, he was confronted with a battered economy, soaring oil prices, American hostages in Iran, and the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan. A Democrat and Baptist from rural Georgia, Carter served as a naval officer at the US Naval Academy and received several military awards, such as the American Campaign Medal, World War II Victory Medal, China Service Medal, and National Defense Service Medal. He was a very successful peanut farmer before engaging in politics and serving two terms as a Georgia State Senator and one as the Governor of Georgia. Though President Carter's term in the White House was not especially notable, his work after the end of his career in politics has been exceptional. After leaving the White House, Jimmy and his wife, Rosalynn Carter, were busy with humanitarian efforts. During Carter's post-presidential career, he emerged as an important voice for international diplomacy and negotiation, remaking his image as a statesman for our time. In 2002, Carter received the Nobel Peace Prize for his significant involvement in humanitarian causes through his non-profit Carter Center. President Carter and his wife were active members of their community until just a few years before their deaths.
