'''Littleberry Calhoun Allen, Jr.''', known as '''Calhoun Allen''' (February 8, 1921 – February 23, 1991), was a two-term [[Democratic Party|Democratic]] [[mayor]] of his native [[Shreveport]], [[Louisiana]], the third largest city in the estate. From 1962-1970, he was for two terms the municipal public utilities commissioner, a position that was abolished in 1978). He also served some two months as a "District B" city council member after his election in the fall of 1990. The racially moderate Allen presided over a formerly [[Segregation|segregated]] Shreveport, but there was much unrest in the black community during his tenure. Public Safety Commissioner George Wendell D'Artois, Jr., had resigned in a swirl of corruption accusations though none reached directly to Allen. By the end of Allen's tenure, City Hall controversies produced a sense of stagnation even though Allen had worked for industrial development and public works projects, one of which bears his name.​
