Leo Arthur Hoegh (pronounced hoyg; March 30, 1908 – July 15, 2000) was a decorated U.S.
Army officer, lawyer, and politician who served as the 33rd Governor of Iowa from 1955 to 1957. His record of public service included important contributions to his home state and to his country.
His career in elective office came to an early end, after his willingness to raise taxes to jump-start improvements to Iowa's roads and schools alienated his conservative Republican allies, and handed Democratic gubernatorial nominee Herschel C.
Loveless an issue to exploit.
