Paul Magloire

Paul Eugène Magloire (July 19, 1907 – July 12, 2001), nicknamed Bon Papa, was a Haitian military ruler from 1950 to 1956.
==Life and career==
Magloire was born a general's son, and joined the army himself in 1930. Quickly rising through the ranks, he became Police Chief of Port-au-Prince in 1944. In 1946 he participated in a successful coup against President Élie Lescot. When his successor, President Dumarsais Estimé, tried to extend his term of office in 1950, Magloire ousted him with the help of a local elite and took power.
During his rule Haiti became a favorite tourist spot for American and European tourists. His anti-communist position also gained favorable reception from the US government. In addition, he used revenues from the sale of coffee to repair towns, build roads, public buildings and a dam. He also oversaw the institution of women's suffrage. Magloire was very fond of a vivid social life, staging numerous parties, social events and ceremonies.
In 1954, when Hurricane Hazel ravaged Haiti and relief funds were stolen, Magloire's popularity fell. In 1956 there was a dispute about when his presidency would end; he fled the country amid strikes and demonstrations. When François Duvalier took the presidency, he stripped Magloire of his Haitian citizenship.
In 1986, when Baby Doc Duvalier lost power, Magloire returned to Haiti from New York. Two years later he became an unofficial army advisor. He died in 2001. He was married to Yolette Leconte until her death in 1981.
