Louis Crosby Wyman was a U.S. Representative and (for 4 days) a Senator from New Hampshire. He was born in Manchester, New Hampshire on March 16, 1917. He graduated from the University of New Hampshire at Durham in 1938 and from Harvard University Law School in 1941. He was admitted to the bars of Massachusetts and New Hampshire in 1941, and of Florida in 1957, and commenced the practice of law in Boston, Massachusetts.
During the Second World War, he served in the Alaskan Theater as a lieutenant in the United States Naval Reserve from 1942 to 1946. He also served as general counsel to a United States Senate committee in 1946; secretary to Senator Styles Bridges in 1947; counsel to the Joint Congressional Committee on Foreign Economic Cooperation from 1948 to 1949; attorney general of New Hampshire from 1953 to 1961; president of the National Association of Attorney Generals in 1957; legislative counsel to the Governor of New Hampshire in 1961; member and chairman of several state legal and judicial commissions.
He was elected as a Republican to the Eighty-eighth Congress (January 3, 1963 - January 3, 1965); unsuccessful candidate for reelection in 1964 to the Eighty-ninth Congress; elected to the Ninetieth Congress; reelected to the three succeeding Congresses and served from January 3, 1967, until his resignation December 31, 1974.
He was not a candidate for reelection, but was a candidate in 1974 for the United States Senate for the six-year term commencing January 3, 1975. He was certified as elected by the State of New Hampshire by a razor-thin two-vote margin over his opponent, John A. Durkin, and was subsequently appointed on December 31, 1974 to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of Norris Cotton for the term ending January 3, 1975, and served until that date. Due to the contested and extremely close election of November 5, 1974, the United States Senate declared the seat vacant as of August 8, 1975. Wyman was unsuccessful in a special September election to fill the vacancy, losing to Durkin.
Wyman served as an associate justice of the New Hampshire Superior Court from 1978 to 1987. He was a resident of Manchester, N.H. and West Palm Beach, Florida, until his death due to cancer on May 5, 2002.
