Zeno Scudder (August 18, 1807 – June 26, 1857) was an American politician and attorney who was the president of the Massachusetts Senate in 1848 and a member of the United States House of Representatives from Massachusetts from 1851 until 1854.

## Biography

[edit]

Scudder was born in Osterville, Massachusetts, on August 18, 1807, as the son of Deacon Josiah[1] and Hannah Scudder. He had a paralysis in his right leg that made a naval career impossible. He studied medicine at Bowdoin College and then law at the Cambridge Law School. He was admitted to the bar in 1856 and conducted practice in Barnstable, Massachusetts.

Scudder was a member of the Massachusetts Senate from 1846 until 1848 and served as Senate President. He was a member of the United States House of Representatives from Massachusetts from 1851 until 1854.

Scudder was elected as a Whig to the Thirty-second and Thirty-third Congresses. His special interest while in Congress was American Fisheries. He served from March 4, 1851, until his resignation on March 4, 1854.

Scudder died in Barnstable, Massachusetts, on June 26, 1857, and was interred in Hillside Cemetery, Osterville.
