Spouse: Catherine Eugenia Finnegan (m. 1941)]] Joseph Robinette "Joe" Biden Sr. was a Automobile salesperson and is the father of the 46th and current President of the United States, Joe Biden.

Joe Biden Sr. prospered during World War II when an uncle gave him a job in his lucrative manufacturing company that provided sealant for merchant marine ships. Biden departed Scranton to oversee operations at the Boston office, embracing a lavish lifestyle filled with fast cars, hunting excursions, and frequent visits to the polo fields. However, following the war, his circumstances took a downturn, leaving Joe Sr. feeling lost and uncertain. In 1953, Joe Sr. secured a position selling cars in Wilmington, Delaware, prompting the family to relocate to an apartment in the suburban area of Claymont. Biden was described as a resilient youngster from a blue-collar Irish Catholic family.
