Joseph Benjamin Dimmick (October 3, 1858 – January 14, 1920) was a Mayor of Scranton, Pennsylvania during a cholera epidemic.

He was the son of Samuel E. Dimmick, a Pennsylvania Attorney General.

In 1914 Boies Penrose was re-elected as the Republican senator for Pennsylvania in preference to Dimmick.

Dimmick took the message of the defeat and afterwards confined himself to local politics and public speaking.

[2] Dimmick died in Stratford, Ontario in 1920 and left a wife and two daughters.
