Raymond Tucker (December 4, 1896 – November 23, 1970) was an American politician that served as the 38th mayor of St. Louis from 1953 until 1965.
From 1939 to 1941, he was secretary to Mayor Dickmann's Survey and Audit Committee which sponsored the Griffenhagen Report on St. Louis City Government.
Tucker was a member of the committee appointed to write the City's first Civil Service Ordinance in 1940.
He became president of the American Municipal Association (now the National League of Cities) in 1959 and headed the United States Conference of Mayors from December 1963 to April 20, 1965.
In March 1965, during his bid for an unprecedented fourth term as mayor, Tucker lost to Alfonso J. Cervantes in the Democratic primary.
A 1993 survey of historians, political scientists and urban experts conducted by Melvin G. Holli of the University of Illinois at Chicago ranked Tucker as the thirteenth-best American big-city mayor to have served between the years 1820 and 1993.
