George Bird Grinnell (1849 - 1938) was an American anthropologist, historian, naturalist, and writer. Born in Brooklyn, New York, he received his BA and PhD from Yale.

Grinnell has been recognized for his influence on public opinion and work on legislation to preserve the American bison. Mount Grinnell in Glacier National Park in Montana is named after him.
