Carter, James Earl (known as ‘ Jimmy’ Carter) (1924– ) US Democratic statesman, 39th President of the USA (1977–81). A progressive and reformist governor of Georgia (1970–74), he was elected President on a manifesto of civil rights and economic reform. Although his administration was notable for achieving the Panama Canal Treaty (1977) and the Camp David agreements (1978), he failed to resolve the crisis caused by the seizure of US hostages in Iran.
