George Newbold Lawrence (October 20, 1806 - January 17, 1895) was an American businessman and amateur ornithologist.

Lawrence conducted Pacific bird surveys for Spencer Fullerton Baird and John Cassin, and the three men co-authored Birds of North America in 1858.

Lawrence left his collection of 8,000 bird skins to the American Museum of Natural History. The Lawrence's Goldfinch Carduelis lawrencei was named for him by Cassin.
