Ronald Reagan, the 40th President of the United States, is remembered for his candor, humor, and calmness during his presidency, endearing himself to the American people. His early career ranged from radio sportscasting to Hollywood actor. He developed a penchant for politics when he campaigned for Barry Goldwater in 1964 and eventually ran for the office of California Governor. He won and served two terms (1966-1974). He was elected president in 1980 and served two consecutive terms. This portrait bust honoring him is made of crushed stone resin with a bronze patina finish. It was made in the U.S.A. at the request of the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library.
