Truman (May 8, 1884 December 26, 1972) was the thirty-fourth Vice President (1945) and the thirty-third President of the United States (1945 – 1953), succeeding to the office upon the death of Franklin D. Roosevelt.
Truman was a folksy, unassuming president, and popularized phrases such as "The buck stops here" and "If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen." He exceeded the low expectations many had at the beginning of his administration, and developed a reputation as a strong, capable leader.
HarryS. Truman was born on May 8, 1884 in Lamar, Missouri, the eldest child of John Anderson Truman and Martha Ellen Young Truman.
