Morley Alvin Hudson (March 31, 1917 – June 15, 2001) was a Shreveport businessman, engineer, civic leader, and a pioneer of the modern Republican Party in Louisiana.
Hudson was born in San Antonio, Texas, the son of Oscar Hudson and the former Ruth Morley. His maternal grandfather, Stephen Kay Morley, was a pharmacist in Austin, Texas, who patented old-time remedies that were popular in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. In youth, he was an Eagle Scout. Hudson graduated cum laude from Georgia Tech in Atlanta, Georgia, with a degree in mechanical engineering. From 1938 to 1940, he played football for the Green Bay Packers under Coach Curly Lambeau.
