Living Presidents of the United States


This is the list of all of the living people who have served as President of the United States at each moment in U.S. history. Currently there are six living presidents, including the incumbent, Donald Trump.

Due to the line of succession outlined in Article 2, Section 1, Clause 6 of the United States Constitution (1789), Amendment 20, Section 3 (1933) and Amendment 25, Section 1 (1967) to the Constitution, there has never been a point where there is no serving President, meaning that from the point of death, resignation, or term end of one United States President, the powers and duties of the presidency are immediately passed to their successor under U.S. law, even before that person takes the oath of office.

This article also includes a list of all of the living people who have served as Vice President of the United States at each moment in U.S. history. Currently there are seven living vice presidents, including the incumbent, Mike Pence.

There have been several gatherings of all the living presidents. Below are photographs of groups of persons who, at one time or another, comprised all living presidents (although several of these photographs were taken prior to or after the time period in which the persons depicted were the only living presidents).

There have been four time periods when there was only one living vice president, first with the inauguration of John Adams in 1789 and most recently during the vice presidency of Thomas R. Marshall after the death of Levi P. Morton. Prior to the current period, there has been only one other time period when seven vice presidents (the incumbent and six former vice presidents) co-existed, between the 1993 inauguration of Al Gore and the 1994 death of Richard Nixon.
