Suzanne Geist (née Henderson; born November 21, 1961) is an American politician who served as a member of the state legislature in the U.S. state of Nebraska from 2017 until her resignation in 2023.[1] She graduated from Pine Bluff High School in Pine Bluff, Arkansas in 1980. Afterwards, she attended the University of Nebraska-Lincoln and graduated with a bachelor's degree in journalism and broadcasting in 1984.[2]
In 2016, Geist was elected to represent the 25th Nebraska legislative district, which encompasses the northeast quarter of Lancaster County including the city of Waverly and the eastern portions of the city of Lincoln.[3]
Geist was a candidate in the 2023 Lincoln, Nebraska mayoral election.[4] One day after the primary election, she announced that she would resign as a state senator the subsequent day in order to focus her attention on the mayor's race.[1] She proceeded to lose the general election on May 2, 2023.[5]
