Barry Charles Wilde (born 3 September 1928) was an Australian politician. He served as an Australian Labor Party Member of the New South Wales Legislative Assembly from 1976 until 1988, representing the electorate of Parramatta. Wilde previously served on Parramatta City Council from 1959 to 1977, as Deputy Mayor in 1966 and as Mayor from 1967 to 1974. Having joined the Australian Labor Party in 1949, he held various positions in the local branch. He ran for the seat of Parramatta in the 1966 and 1969 Federal elections against Sir Nigel Bowen, and the 1973 by-election and 1974 Federal election against Philip Ruddock; however was unsuccessful at each attempt. Following the retirement of sitting State Member Dan Mahoney, Wilde was elected to the Labor seat of Parramatta at the 1976 general election which saw Neville Wran defeat the Liberal Party's Sir Eric Willis to become Premier. Wilde was re-elected at the 1978, 1981, and 1984 State elections. This was despite an electoral redistribution in 1979, where the safe Labor seat became marginally Liberal. Wilde was subsequently defeated by Liberal candidate John Books as the Greiner-Murray Liberal-National coalition swept the Barry Unsworth Labor Government from power in the 1988 State election. A bridge that crosses Parramatta River, running north from Smith Street to Wilde Street and constructed in 1975, is named in his honour.
