In the 1970s, he had a hand in many of the epoch-changing global events of the decade while serving as secretary of state under Republican Richard Nixon - and Kissinger was hailed for his brilliance and broad experience during his diplomatic years.

The German-born Jewish refugee's efforts led to the diplomatic opening of China, landmark U.S.-Soviet arms control talks, expanded ties between Israel and its Arab neighbors, and the Paris Peace Accords with North Vietnam.

Kissinger's reign as the prime architect of U.S. foreign policy waned with Nixon's resignation in 1974.
