Inauguration of President Barack Obama, 2009 by Christopher Morris, Copy photograph from digital file

This photograph of Barack Obama is reminiscent of a 1961 Time image of John F. Kennedy, which was the first time the magazine had used an inaugural image on its cover. Time’s editors reflected back to that historic occasion and compared the production logistics of making that cover-about thirty-six hours-to the seemingly instantaneous digital printing of today. Christopher Morris’s photograph of the new president taking the oath of office, his left hand on the Bible held by the new first lady, Michelle Obama, depicts a confident first couple at a singular moment in history. Born a few months after Kennedy’s inauguration, Obama defied the odds of growing up as an African American in a nation undergoing profound civil rights reforms. Forty-seven years later, that Obama could address his fellow Americans from the presidential podium was indeed a measure of the man and his country.

On the road to the White House during the election year of 2008, Democratic candidate Barack Obama appeared on the cover of Time magazine a total of thirteen times. By far the most historically symbolic of those covers was this one, which appeared just after the November election. Through the magic of digital photo imaging, it alters a vintage photograph of Franklin Roosevelt to show Obama instead. Obama sits behind the wheel of Roosevelt’s convertible, wears FDR’s suit and hat, and smokes a cigarette with FDR’s trademark cigarette holder clenched between his teeth. In placing Obama in FDR’s shoes, Time was underscoring the president-elect’s first priority of business-fixing a crippled economy, the worst since the Great Depression of the 1930s. With an urgency reminiscent of Roosevelt’s New Deal, Obama signed a 7 billion economic stimulus package four weeks after taking office.

Barack Obama (TIME), 2008 by Shepard Fairey, Rubylith and mixed media collage

In 2008 Barack Obama successfully commanded the nation’s attention as few first-time presidential candidates have been able to do before decisively winning the November election. By year’s end, when Time’s editors convened to discuss a favorite December ritual-the selection of a Person of the Year-the choice of the forty-seven year-old president-elect must have been obvious, if not a foregone conclusion. The selection of an artist to create the cover portrait was also an obvious choice, given the iconic image that artist Shepard Fairey made for Obama’s campaign in January 2008, at the start of the presidential primaries. What began as a limited edition of 350 silkscreened posters offered on Fairey’s Web site for fifty dollars each-one labeled "Hope" and the other "Progress"-quickly morphed into a major production; by mid-May Fairey had circulated 80,000 posters of Obama and 150,000 postcard-size stickers.
