Joseph Davies Tydings (né Cheesborough; May 4, 1928 – October 8, 2018) was an American lawyer and politician from Maryland. A member of the Democratic Party, he was most notable for his service as a member of the United States Senate for only a single term from 1965 to 1971. Tydings also argued Eisenstadt v. Baird, in which the Supreme Court of the United States legalized birth control for single persons in 1972. The decision has been described as among the most influential Supreme Court decisions of the 20th century. Source: Wikipedia (en)
