Early life

Hathaway was born in Cambridge, Massachusetts. He served in World War II in the United States Army Air Corps, where he was shot down while bombing the Ploiești, Romania oil fields during Operation Tidal Wave and was a prisoner of war for over two months. He was awarded the Air Medal, the Purple Heart, and the Distinguished Flying Cross.<ref>Template:Cite news</ref>

After the war he attended Harvard University, graduating in 1949, and Harvard Law School, graduating in 1953. He then moved to Maine and practiced law in Lewiston.

Political career

Congressional portrait, c. 1970-71

He served as Assistant County Attorney for Androscoggin County from 1955 to 1957, and he was a Hearing Examiner for the State Liquor Commission from 1957 to 1961.

U. S. Representative

A Democrat, in 1964 he was elected to the U.S. House from the 2nd District after incumbent Republican Clifford McIntire ran unsuccessfully for the United States Senate, and he served from 1965 until 1973. This was a time of resurgence for Democrats in Maine, at that time a traditionally Republican state. The same period saw the growth of the political careers of Edmund S. Muskie and Kenneth M. Curtis. As a congressman Hathaway supported President Johnson's Great Society. He also helped lay groundwork to establish the Occupational Safety and Health Administration.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>

U. S. Senator

In 1972, Hathaway ran for the U.S. Senate and defeated four-term Republican incumbent Margaret Chase Smith by 27,230 votes. In 1973, Hathaway was one of the three senators who opposed the nomination of Gerald Ford to be Vice President. (The other two were fellow Democrats Thomas Eagleton of Missouri and Gaylord Nelson of Wisconsin.)<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> One of his Senate aides was future Maine Governor and Senator Angus King. In 1973, Hathaway received a letter from a woman complaining that she had been rejected by the United States Military Academy at West Point, New York because she was female. He then introduced legislation that led to the admission of women at West Point and other military academies in 1976. [1] Hathaway was an unsuccessful candidate for reelection in 1978, losing to his successor in the 2nd District, and future Secretary of Defense William Cohen, by 84,967 votes.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>

Later life

Hathaway resided in the Washington, D.C., area after leaving the Senate and worked as a lobbyist and lawyer.<ref name="BDN">Template:Cite news</ref> In 1990 he was appointed by President George H. W. Bush to the Federal Maritime Commission, and he served as chairman from 1993 to 1996.

Hathaway was known and well-liked by the employees of the U.S. Senate, especially the Senate elevator operators. He was a constant source of humor and good will to those that worked on the Capitol elevators.

He retired in 1996 and continued to live in the Washington, DC, area.

In June 2002, at the age of 78, Hathaway was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross for heroism during Operation Tidal Wave.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>

Hathaway was married to Mary Lee Bird of Horse Shoe, North Carolina, and Akron, Ohio, for over 61 years until her death, in 2007. Hathaway had two children, Susan and Fred.

Hathaway died of pulmonary fibrosis<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> exactly 69 years to the day after he was shot down during World War II.
