Huey Long was an influential American politician and the 40th Governor of Louisiana, known for his populist policies and ambitious social programs during the 1930s. A charismatic and polarizing figure, Long was a champion of the poor and advocated for wealth redistribution through his 'Share Our Wealth' program.
