**Jennison Heaton** (April 16, 1904 – August 6, 1971) was an American [bobsled](/source/Bobsled) and [skeleton](/source/Skeleton_(sport)) racer. He competed at the [1928 Winter Olympics](/source/1928_Winter_Olympics) and won a gold medal in the skeleton event and a silver in the five-man bobsleigh competition. In the skeleton, Heaton beat the silver medalist (his younger brother [John](/source/John_Heaton_(athlete))) by one second. His other brother Trowbridge was also a bobsleigh enthusiast. Heaton later married Beulah Fiske, becoming the brother-in-law of [Billy Fiske](/source/Billy_Fiske), also an Olympic bobsledder.[1]
