Eisaku Sato

Born on March 27, 1901 and died on June 3, 1975. Sato, who was a bureaucrat-turned politician, served as prime minister from Nov. 9, 1964 to July 6, 1972, setting the record for the longest continuous tenure in Japan. Sato won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1974 due partly to his three nonnuclear principles -- not manufacturing, not possessing and not introducing nuclear weapons. His diplomatic achievements include the 1965 normalization of relations with South Korea and the 1972 reversion of Okinawa from the U.S. to Japan. (Photo was taken on Oct. 9, 1974)
