Celia Gavin
In 1920, Celia Gavin ran to be a Democratic Presidential Elector and lost. Gavin, a lawyer, had been the City Attorney in The Dalles for three terms prior to her failed campaign, and continued to serve in this position after 1920. During this time, she also worked in a personal law practice with her father and served as the secretary of the Democratic County Committee and the local Woodrow Wilson League. It does not appear that City Attorney was an elected position in The Dalles at this time.
