Harry C. Van Norman (May 16, 1874 – October 11, 1929) was a member of the Illinois House of Representatives for the 2nd district from 1924 to 1927 and alderman of Chicago's 27th ward from 1927 until his death after a long illness in 1929.[1] In both capacities he represented a significant portion of Chicago's Near West Side where he lived. A Democrat, he served alongside fellow Democrat Frank Ryan and Republican Peter S. Krump in the House,[2] and had previously run unsuccessfully for the House in 1922. After his death he was succeeded by Democrat Jeremiah P. Leahy in the Chicago City Council in April 1930.[3]
