Anton Joseph Cermak (Czech: Antonín Josef Cermák, pronounced ['anto?i?n 'joz?f 't??rma?k];May 9, 1873 – March 6, 1933) was an American politician who served as the 44th mayor of Chicago, Illinois from April 7, 1931 until his death on March 6, 1933.
He was killed by an assassin, whose likely target was President Franklin D.Roosevelt, but the assassin shot Cermak instead after a bystander hit the assassin with a purse.
