Is this dashing young man franklin d. Roosevelt?

Claim: A photograph shows a young Franklin Delano Roosevelt, the 32nd President of the United States. A photograph of Franklin D. Roosevelt, Jr. is frequently shared online thanks to his

“seriously handsome” looks and because of the misconception that it is a picture of his father, the 32nd President of the United States: The picture, which is sometimes displayed in an

artificially colorized format, appears to date to the late 1930s and may be associated with Roosevelt Jr.’s time as a student at the University of Virginia Law School, which he attended from

1937 to 1940. For comparison, the following is a photograph of Franklin Jr. next to his father and his family taken during his wedding to Ethel DuPont in June 1937, a month before he began

his studies at UVA: Embed from Getty Images Roosevelt Jr., who died in 1988, also led a public life. After graduating from law school, he served in the Navy during World War II, taking part

in the invasions of North Africa and Sicily, the Philippines, Iwo Jima, and Okinawa. Following the war, he held office as as a United States Congressman from New York from 1949 to 1955 and

was the first chairman of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission during the administration of President Lyndon B. Johnson.
