| Description | Former Democratic U.S. Sen. Bill Hathaway, a World War II prisoner of war who upset Maine legend Margaret Chase Smith but then lost his seat after one term to William Cohen, has died. He was 89.
Hathaway died Monday at his home in McLean, Va., said his daughter-in-law, Lee Hathaway.
A liberal Democrat who had strong backing from organized labor, Hathaway served four terms in the House from northern Maine's 2nd District, geographically the largest east of the Mississippi, before running for the Senate in 1972. |
