Matilda Dodge Wilson (1883–1967) was an American socialite, philanthropist, and businesswoman. She was born Matilda Rausch Dodge in Detroit, Michigan, and became the widow of John Francis Dodge, one of the co-founders of the Dodge automobile company. After her husband's death in 1920, she inherited a significant portion of the Dodge estate, making her one of the wealthiest women in the United States at the time.
Wilson remarried in 1925 to Alfred Wilson, a mining executive and former bodyguard of the Dodge brothers. Together, they developed Meadow Brook Hall in Rochester, Michigan, which is one of the largest historic homes in the United States. The estate later became part of the founding property for Oakland University, which the couple helped establish in 1957.
She served as Michigan's first female lieutenant governor, albeit briefly, in 1949. Appointed to fill a vacancy, her tenure lasted only a few days, as the position was transitional under a change in gubernatorial succession rules at the time.
Throughout her life, Matilda Dodge Wilson was known for her philanthropy, particularly in education and the arts. She contributed significantly to the development of cultural and educational institutions in Michigan.
