Eugene C. Keyes (August 23, 1900 – 1963) was the 45th and 47th lieutenant governor of Michigan from 1943 to 1945 and 1947 to 1949.[1]
Born in Dearborn, Michigan, Keyes studied as a doctor and lawyer, receiving several degrees. In 1921, the Royal College of Dental Surgeons awarded him a Doctor of Dental Surgery, followed by a Doctor of Medicine degree from Wayne State University in 1930.[1] In 1932, he founded the Keyes Diagnostic Clinic in Dearborn.[2] In 1935, Keyes earned a law degree from the Detroit College of Law.[1]
Before serving as lieutenant governor, Keyes was a county supervisor and city councilman in his home city. He was affiliated with the Republican Party.[1] Keyes served as lieutenant governor under two governors, Harry Kelly from 1943 to 1945 and Kim Sigler from 1947 to 1949, both of whom were also Republicans.[3]
In 1965, two years after Keyes death, the clinic he founded was demolished to make way for parking lots.[2]
