David Hogg (August 21, 1886 – October 23, 1973) was an American politician and lawyer who served four terms in the United States House of Representatives, representing the 12th congressional district of Indiana from 1925 to 1933 as a Republican.[1][2]

Early life and education

Hogg was born near Crothersville, Indiana, on August 21, 1886, to Nelson T. Hogg and Nancy Ellen Hogg. He graduated from the College of Liberal Arts in 1909 and the law department in 1912 at Indiana University Bloomington.

Career

Hogg was admitted to the bar in 1913; he commenced practice in Fort Wayne, Indiana.[3]

Hogg served as chairman of the Allen County Republican Central Committee from 1922 to 1924, resigning to run for Congress.

Congress

In 1924, Hogg was elected as a Republican to the 69th United States Congress, beginning his term on March 4, 1925. Hogg was re-elected to the three subsequent Congresses, finishing his final term on March 3, 1933. The Anti-Saloon League endorsed his candidacy in 1926.[4]

Hogg was an unsuccessful candidate for re-election in 1932 to the 73rd United States Congress, in 1934 to the 74th United States Congress,[5] and in 1936 to the 75th United States Congress.

Later career

Following his tenure in Congress, Hogg resumed practicing law, branching out into mutual life insurance in 1939. From 1940 to 1943, he served as president of Goodwill Industries of Fort Wayne.

From 1941 to 1946, Hogg co-published an interdenominational newspaper, after which he again resumed practicing law until his death.
