Hannah Milhous Nixon (March 7, 1885 – September 30, 1967) was the mother of President Richard Nixon.


Richard Nixon described his mother as "a Quaker saint."[2] She is acknowledged to have exerted a tremendous effect on her son's outlook throughout his life.[3] In Nixon's final remarks at the White House on August 9, 1974, he stated about her, "Nobody will ever write a book, probably, about my mother. Well, I guess all of you would say this about your mother -- my mother was a saint. And I think of her, two boys dying of tuberculosis, nursing four others in order that she could take care of my older brother for 3 years in Arizona, and seeing each of them die, and when they died, it was like one of her own. Yes, she will have no books written about her. But she was a saint."[4]
