Alton Asa Lennon (August 17, 1906 – December 28, 1986) of Wilmington, New Hanover County, N.C., was a Democratic U.S. senator from the state of North Carolina between 1953 and 1954, and later, a member of the U.S. House of Representatives representing North Carolina's 7th congressional district from 1957 to 1973. Lennon was one of the very few former United States Senators in modern times (the only other examples being James Wolcott Wadsworth Jr. from New York, Claude Pepper from Florida, Hugh Mitchell from Washington, Garrett Withers from Kentucky, and Magnus Johnson from Minnesota) to be elected to the House after their Senate careers. (Matthew M. Neely from West Virginia and Charles A. Towne from New York via Minnesota were also elected to the House after their Senate careers, but they had been elected to the House before their Senate careers as well.)
