Marcel Hart (5 July 1909 – 27 January 1969) was a French Polynesian politician. He became Mayor of Uturoa in 1959 and a member of the Territorial Assembly in 1962, holding both positions until his death in 1969.

Biography

Hart was born in Papeete in 1909.[1] He was a shipowner, owning Tamarii Raiatea until 1966, when he replaced it with Temehani.[1]

He entered politics in 1946, becoming a member of the municipal council of Uturoa. In 1959 he was elected mayor of the town.[1] In the 1962 elections he was elected to the Territorial Assembly in the Leeward Islands constituency, representing the Tahitian Democratic Union.[2] He was re-elected in 1967, the same year in which his wife Alice died.[3]

In January 1969 Hart died in an industrial accident; while visiting a road-building site, he began operating a bulldozer and a ground collapse led to it falling into a ravine.[3]
