Biography

Jere Logan Hargrove (born September 17, 1946) is a Tennessee Democratic politician who served in the Tennessee House of Representatives.
Hargrove was born September 17, 1946 in Cookeville, Tennessee. He was educated at Freed-Hardeman University, receiving an associate degree in 1966; Abilene Christian University, receiving a bachelor's degree in 1969; and the University of Tennessee College of Law, where he received a J.D. degree in 1981. He was an assistant district attorney in Putnam County, Tennessee from 1987 to 1990.
In 1990, Hargrove won election to the Tennessee House of Representatives, representing Putnam County, and took office the following year as a member of the 97th Tennessee General Assembly. He went on to serve eight consecutive two-year terms, from 1991 through 2006. He did not seek re-election in 2006.
He was Assistant House Majority Leader in the 98th and 99th General Assemblies and Majority Leader in the 100th and 101st General Assemblies. In the 104th Tennessee General Assembly (2005-2006), he was chairman of the House Commerce Committee.
Hargrove's first marriage ended in divorce. He has four children by that marriage. In November 2006, the day after his successor's election to the legislature, he married Rebecca Paul, chief executive of the Tennessee Lottery and his second wife. Their wedding took place on the first day they could marry without creating a conflict with a state law that bars the state lottery executive from being related to another state government official.
