William Jefferson "Bill" Clinton, former Governor of Arkansas, served as the 42nd President of the United States (POTUS) from January 20, 1993 until January 20, 2001. He took office at the end of the Cold War, and was the first baby boomer generation president.

Note: President Bill Clinton displayed several racks of challenge coins, which had been given to him by U.S. servicemembers, on the credenza behind his Oval Office desk.  These coins are currently on display at the Clinton Library.  The challenge coins appear in the background of his official portrait, now hanging in the White House.
