H.H. Chesterman was an American politician who briefly served as the 15th secretary of state of Minnesota from July to September 1952.

Chesterman, who had served as Assistant Secretary of State under Mike Holm, was appointed to the position in July 1952 by Gov. Elmer Anderson after Holm's death. Chesterman was replaced by Anderson in September of that year; Anderson appointed Virginia Paul Holm, Mike Holm's widow, after public sentiment grew that she should succeed him.[1]
