M. Edwin Wiggins was president of the Birmingham City Council for two full terms, from 1963 to 1971. He also chaired the Council's Finance Committee.

Wiggins was the second-highest vote-getter, after John Bryan, in the 1963 Birmingham municipal election, which entitled him to the role of "vice-moderator" for the council-elect before taking office. He was also appointed, along with attorneys Nina Miglionico and John Golden, to a Rules Committee which would draft the council's rules of conduct.
