Summary
Ronald Wilson Reagan (February 6, 1911-June 5, 2004) was an American actor and politician. He was the 40th president of the United States (1981-'89) and served as the 33rd governor of California (1967-'75) before his presidency. As president, Reagan implemented sweeping new political and economic initiatives. His supply-side economic policies, dubbed "Reaganomics", advocated reducing tax rates to spur economic growth, controlling the money supply to reduce inflation, deregulation of the economy, and reducing government spending.
In his first term, he survived an assassination attempt, took a hard line against labor unions, escalated the War on Drugs, and ordered an invasion of Grenada to reverse a Communist coup.
