William Jefferson "Bill" Clinton, born on August 19, 1946, is an American politician who served as the 42nd President of the United States. He was in office from 1993 to 2001. Clinton, a Democrat, was known for his economic policies that contributed to a period of strong economic growth and job creation in the United States during the 1990s. His presidency also saw significant domestic and international events, including the signing of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), the Oslo Accords, and the Dayton Agreement, which helped end the Bosnian War.
However, his presidency was also marked by controversies, including the Monica Lewinsky scandal, which led to his impeachment by the House of Representatives in 1998. Clinton was ultimately acquitted by the Senate and completed his second term in office.
After leaving the presidency, Clinton remained active in public life through his philanthropic work, particularly through the Clinton Foundation. He's also been involved in various diplomatic and humanitarian efforts around the world.
