Giovanni Gronchi, OMCA (Italian pronunciation:[dʒoˈvanniˈɡroŋki]; 10 September 1887 – 17 October 1978)[1] was an Italian politician from Christian Democracy who served as the president of Italy from 1955 to 1962 and was marked by a controversial and failed attempt to bring about an "opening to the left" in Italian politics.
He was reputed the real holder of the executive power in Italy from 1955 to 1962, behind the various Prime Ministers of this time.
