At the time, the city was gripped by the Great Depression. Millions of Americans were out of work, nearly half the country’s banks had failed, and New York City’s mayor at the time had presided over scandal, social unrest and incompetence.

A progressive Republican, La Guardia also considered himself a “New Dealer.” He appealed to a complex coalition of working-class immigrants and minorities, middle-class Jews, liberal Democrats and German Republicans.

“La Guardia intuitively understood the city was in decline and his focus needed to be in managing the city rather than preaching divisive ideology,” explained Seth Siegel, a lifelong New York Democrat, businessman and activist.
