Walter Frederick "Fritz" Mondale (January 5, 1928 – April 19, 2021) was an American politician who was the forty-second Vice President of the United States (1977–1981) under President Jimmy Carter.[1] He was a two-term United States Senator from Minnesota. Mondale was the Democratic Party nominee for president in 1984. His vice presidential nominee, Geraldine Ferraro, was the first woman to be nominated. He only got a majority of votes in Minnesota and the District of Columbia, and lost to Ronald Reagan in the other 49 states.
Mondale was the first Vice President to have an office. He made the role of Vice President more important than it once was, by having weekly meetings with President Carter.
During the Bill Clinton presidency, he was the Ambassador to Japan from 1993 to 1996.
Mondale was hospitalized with influenza at the Mayo Clinic, in Rochester, Minnesota, in March 2015.[2]
Mondale died on April 19, 2021, in his Minneapolis home at age 93.[3][4]
