politician Czech Republic

Antonín Čermák was a prominent American politician of Czechoslovak descent who served as the Mayor of Chicago from 1931 until his death in 1933. A member of the Democratic Party, Čermák was known for his progressive policies and efforts to improve the city during the Great Depression. He was fatally injured during an assassination attempt on Franklin D. Roosevelt in February 1933, which occurred shortly before Roosevelt's inauguration. The attack not only highlighted the political tensions of the era but also marked a significant moment in American history, as Čermák succumbed to his wounds just days after Roosevelt took office.
