Patrick Daley Thompson is an alderman in Chicago's 11th Ward. He is the grandson of Richard J. Daley and a nephew of Richard M. Daley, both of whom served as mayors of Chicago.[1]

The son of Patricia (née Daley), a schoolteacher, and Bill Thompson, a real estate developer, following his parents' divorce, Patrick and his siblings moved to Bridgeport with their mother to be closer to her family. Thompson, who succeeded long-time alderman James Balcer, was elected to office in a runoff election in April 2015. He was sworn in on May 18, 2015.[2] The 11th Ward encompasses several neighborhoods on Chicago's South Side, including Bridgeport, where Thompson was raised and currently resides.
