Amy Agnes Kaukonen (1891–1984) was an American medical doctor and politician and the first female mayor in Ohio and one of the first in the United States.

[1][2] The daughter of Joseph Wilhelm Kaukonen and Karoliina Aila Koivisto, who came to Ohio from Finland,[3] she was born in Lorain.

In 1911, she began studying medicine at the Woman's Medical College of Pennsylvania, graduating in 1915.

She ran on a prohibitionist platform because of her experience treating patients suffering from abuse of bootleg alcohol.

During her time in office, Kaukonen and her council used licensing to control the pool rooms and soft drink establishments which had previously been selling bootleg whisky.
