Kenneth Hahn was on the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors, 1952-1992 and was on the City Council from 1947-1952. He was an ardent supporter of civil rights. Gil Lindsay helped Hahn get the Negro vote and win county supervisor. He appointed Lindsay as a field deputy, a position he held until 1963 when he was elected to City Council.
