Walter Mondale
Jimmy Carter and Walter Mondale were elected president and vice president of the United States on Nov. 2, 1976. On the president's behalf, Mondale traveled extensively throughout the nation and the world advocating U.S. policy. He was the first vice president to have an office in the White House, and he served as a full-time participant, advisor, and troubleshooter for the administration.

In 1984, Mondale was the Democratic Party's nominee for president of the United States. He lost to President Ronald Reagan.

Since that election, Mondale has been practicing law, teaching, studying, traveling, and serving as a director of both non-profit and corporate boards. He returned to his native Minnesota in 1987, where he has been practicing law as a partner with the firm of Dorsey & Whitney.

Until his appointment as U.S. Ambassador to Japan, Walter Mondale was a Distinguished University Fellow in Law and Public Affairs at the Hubert H. Humphrey Institute of Public Affairs, University of Minnesota. In 1990, Mondale established the Mondale Policy Forum at the Humphrey Institute. The forum has brought together leading scholars and policymakers for annual conferences on domestic and international issues. For 1992-93, the forum's theme was the "The Challenge of Social Justice in a Global Economy."
