Harold Hart Crane (July 21, 1899 in Garrettsville, Ohio, United States - April 26, 1932) was a U.S poet. He was the son of Clarence Crane, the inventor of Life Savers candy.

By age thirty, Crane had the physical appearance of an old man. A friend of Man Ray, his photo appeared in Vanity Fair in 1929.

His major published works were White Buildings (published in 1926) and The Bridge (published in 1930).
