Wendell Wyatt (born June 15, 1917) was a Republican United States Representative from Oregon's 1st congressional district who served in the United States House of Representatives from 1964 until 1975.

Life before Congress

Born in Eugene, Oregon, Wyatt's family later moved to Portland where he graduated from Jefferson High School in 1935. He received his Bachelor of Laws degree from the University of Oregon in 1941. In World War II, he served in the United States Marine Corps from 1942 until 1946. After, he became a lawyer at Schwabe, Williamson & Wyatt. He was Chairman of the Oregon State Republican Central committee from 1955 until 1957.

Congressional service

In 1964 he was elected simultaneously to the 88th and 89th Congress by special election, to fill the vacancy caused by the death of A. Walter Norblad, and was reelected to the four succeeding Congresses. After 10 years of service, he declined to run again in 1974, and he returned to his law firm. He has since retired, and is a resident of Portland.
