Jacinto Bienvenido Peynado (February 15, 1878 - February 24, 1940) was the President of the Dominican Republic from August 16, 1938 until February 24, 1940 during the Trujillo Era. Prior to ascending to the Presidency, he was Vice-President from 1933-1940. Peynado came from a distinguished Dominican family and was educated in Santo Domingo as a lawyer and worked as a law professor at Univeristy of Santo Domingo. He was appointed minister of justice by President Ramon Baes in 1914 and retained that position in Juan Isidro Jiminez's government. He also served as secretary of the interior and the police. His brother, Francisco, had negotiated with Charles Evans Hughes the treaty that terminated the occupation by the Marines in 1924. Peynado briefly served as interim president of the Dominican Republic under the dictatorship of Rafael Trujillo, interrupting Rafael Estrella Urena's term of office from April 22, 1930 until May 21, 1930, when Urena resumed the presidency. Peynado served as secretary of the interior, police, and war in General Trujillo's subsequent government. He became secretary to the president in 1932, and was elected Trujillo's vice-president in 1934. Peynado was Trujillo's hand-picked candidate in the elections held in 1938. He assumed the presidency on August 16, 1938, though Trujillo largely continued to control the country. Peynado retained office until his death in Ciudad Trujillo, Dominican Republic, on February 24, 1940. [edit] References
