Biography
Born in Belmont, Massachusetts, Hopkins graduated from Belmont High School and went on to the University of Massachusetts, where he earned his bachelor's degree in chemical engineering.[1] His work as an engineer brought him to Wisconsin, where he was employed first at Johnson Plastics Machinery, and then co-founded Extrusion Dies, Inc.[2]
He became involved with the Republican Party of Wisconsin and was an officer in The Conservative Caucus.[1] In 1978, he ran what was considered to be a longshot campaign for Wisconsin State Assembly, challenging incumbent Democrat Steven C. Brist.[3] He won a narrow 317 vote victory in the general election, taking 51% of the vote.[4] He went on to win reelection in 1980, but was defeated in a rematch with Brist in 1982, after the implementation of a court-ordered redistricting plan.[5][6]
Shortly after the 1982 election, he relocated to Florida with his family and founded Complex, Inc., in St. Augustine, Florida. He remained there for the rest of his life.[7]
Personal life and family
Hopkins married Gloria Ann Burris in 1962. They had three children together.[1][7]
David R. Hopkins died in St. Augustine in December 2017.[7]
