Hilton Wick

Hilton Wick (c. 1919 – March 17, 2006) was an American politician and Vermont State Senator for a term starting in 1988. A Republican, he ran in the primary during the 1984 Vermont gubernatorial election, but lost the nomination to John J. Easton, Jr.

Wick was raised in Pennsylvania and arrived in Vermont in 1949. He practised law and became President of the Chittenden Trust Co. His role as a community leader, most notably charitable fundraising, gave him a high profile leading to his political career.

He is also the older brother of lawyer Henry Wick, a Pennsylvania politician.
