The spouse of the [[Mayor of Honolulu]] is an unpaid ceremonial position. Those who have filled the position have been a reflection of the history of the islands. Several were of Hawaiian ancestry. Emma Fern was a Hawaiian chanter and dancer. [[Kini Kapahu Wilson]] was not only a proponent of women's voting suffrage, but also found fame as a hula dancer who performed for heads of state around the world. Where Hawaiian ancestry was involved, including the cultural tradition of informal adoption known as [[hānai]], some of the spouses were known by more than one name in addition to their married names.

So far, [[Eileen Anderson]] has been the only woman mayor, and her husband Clifford F. Anderson was retired as an officer with the [[Honolulu Police Department]] when she ran for office. Mayor [[Frank Fasi]] married Cherry Blossom Queen contestant Joyce Kono. Lucy Thurston Blaisdell was a school teacher for decades, and Gail Mukaihata Hanneman served as a United States Congressional staffer or years, before returning to Hawaii when her husband ran for mayor. [[Donna Tanoue]] has a background in financial investment, has served on several corporate boards, and earned her [[Juris Doctor|J.D.]] from the [[Georgetown University Law Center]].
