Stephen L. Chipman

Stephen L. Chipman (1864–1945) was a member of the Utah State Legislature in 1903 and a leader in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church) in Utah County.

He was also the first president of the Salt Lake Temple who was not also an apostle in the LDS Church.

He also held several positions in the LDS Church's Sunday School, was a counselor to a ward bishop, and was a member of the high council of the Utah Stake (named such because at that time it took in all of Utah County).

The four men who had served in this position prior to Chipman had all been apostles at the time of their service.

Chipman served as president of the Salt Lake Temple until 1945, when he was succeeded by apostle Joseph Fielding Smith.
