Walter J. Cookson (April 17, 1876 – June 11, 1936), Republican politician, was mayor of Worcester, Massachusetts in 1936.[1] Cookson was elected mayor after serving several years on the School Committee. Only a few months after his election, he collapsed and died of a heart attack in his Cleveland hotel room while attending the 1936 Republican National Convention.[2] Cookson Field, an {{convert|18|acre|m2|adj=on}} park near Worcester's College of the Holy Cross is named in his honor.
