Time Person Of The Year History of Winners

We need to remember that the Time award goes to someone who has affected our lives both in good and bad ways, this is why both Stalin and Hitler are past recipients of the person of the year. 

Charles Lindbergh

The celebrated aviator was the first recipient of the Time Person of the Year award

During most Presidential terms the Commander In Chief normally wins a Time Person Of The Year, Bush, Biden, Clinton, Obama (twice), and Trump all received the honour in recent years. 

The Computer

In 1982 such was the effect that computers had started to have on our lives that a machine won the Time Award.

You can see by the recent list of winners that groups of people who are loosely connected have featured more prominently since 2010.   

Group Winners

Hungarian Freedom Fighters in 1956, US Scientists in 1960, American Women in 1975, and Peacemakers in 1993 are some of the groups who have won the annual Time Award.
