John Dingell
John David Dingell, Jr. (born July 8 1926), American politician, is the Dean (longest-serving member) of the United States House of Representatives. A Democrat, he has represented a district in the working-class western suburbs of Detroit since 1955 (currently the 15th district, map). Dingell's father, John D. Dingell, Sr. (1894-1955), represented the same district from 1933 to 1955. The Dingells are of Polish descent, and together they have represented the heavily Polish western suburbs of Detroit for 72 years. For many years, Dingell represented part of Detroit itself, but the city's steep population decline and the growth of its suburbs has pushed all of Detroit into the districts of John Conyers and Carolyn Kilpatrick.
