George Angier Gordon (born January 2, 1853, Aberdeenshire, Scotland–died October 25, 1929, Brookline, Massachusetts), Protestant clergyman and author. An estate overseer's son, he worked several manual trades before emigrating to America in 1871. He graduated from Bangor Theological Seminary, then from Harvard (1881).
