Robert James Lee Hawke AC was the 23rd Prime Minister of Australia and longest serving Australian Labor Party Prime Minister.
After a decade as president of the Australian Council of Trade Unions, he entered politics at the 1980 elections and became Prime Minister within three years. He became by far the longest-serving and most electorally successful Labor Prime Minister, achieving the rare feat of winning four consecutive federal elections, and he is Australia's third longest-serving Prime Minister.
