Zhou Enlai
1898 CE–1976 CE · Beijing
Zhou Enlai (1898-1976) was the first premier of the People's Republic of China, serving as head of government from its founding in 1949 until his death. A senior Communist leader and diplomat, he directed the state's administration and much of its foreign policy under Mao Zedong, representing China at international gatherings such as the 1954 Geneva and 1955 Bandung conferences and helping arrange the 1972 opening to the United States. Often seen as a moderating and pragmatic presence within the leadership, he sought to limit some of the disruptions of the Cultural Revolution while remaining loyal to Mao.
