John Craig Chenoweth (May 4, 1943 – August 10, 1991) was a Minnesota politician, executive director of the Minneapolis Municipal Employees Retirement Fund, and a victim of an anti-gay hate crime. As a member of the Minnesota Democratic–Farmer–Labor Party, he served in the Minnesota State House (1969–71) and Senate (1971–79).

Early life and career

John Craig Chenoweth was born in Saint Paul, Minnesota, on May 4, 1943. He was educated at the Johnson High School, New York Institute of Finance, Saint Paul Seminary School of Divinity at University of St. Thomas and Saint John's University.[1] He also attended John Carroll University and William Mitchell College of Law, but did not graduate.[1] Chenoweth served in the Minnesota House of Representatives from 1969 to 1971 and in the Minnesota Senate from 1971 to 1979. Before he was first elected, he was a Saint Paul Municipal Court law clerk and congressional campaign director.[1] In November 1979, he resigned his term to become the executive director of the Minneapolis Municipal Employees Retirement Fund.[1] He held the position until May 1990, when he resigned.[1][2]

Personal life

He was married to Mary Sharon Naughton from 1969 to 1977, by whom he had a son, John.[1]

Death

Chenoweth was murdered by gunshot on the beach (a gay hangout area at the time) in Minneapolis, on August 10, 1991.[2][3] The murderer, Jay Thomas Johnson, a gay himself both before and after the incident, shot in the back and killed another gay man in Loring Park 11 days earlier, a 21-year-old Joel Larson, on July 31 1991.[3][4][5] He also seriously wounded a 19-year-old Cord Draszt, in the same shooting when Chenoweth was killed.[4][5]
