Margaret Pinkley Varda (June 30, 1917 – February 13, 2011) was an American lawyer and politician.
John Varda resigned from the Wisconsin Assembly and joined the United States Army during World War II.
Margaret Varda then ran for her husband's seat and was elected to the Wisconsin State Assembly.
She was assigned to the European theater and had the good fortune to be located only 50 miles from her husband, who, by the time she arrived, was serving as Deputy Military Governor in Aschaffenburg, Germany.
In 1952, Varda ran in the Republican primary for a Wisconsin Assembly seat and lost the election, mainly for her refusal to endorse the politics of Senator Joseph McCarthy.
