George Bradley (born 1953) is an American poet, editor, and fiction writer whose work is characterized by formal structure, humor, and satirical narrative.

Bradley was raised on Long Island and has lived in Virginia, New York City, Italy and Connecticut[1][2] and attended The Hill School, Yale University, and the University of Virginia.

[3] At present, he imports and distributes a brand of olive oil (La Bontà di Fiesole) produced in Tuscany.

In 1998 he edited The Yale Younger Poets Anthology, which traced the history of the first poetry series in America from its inception in 1919 to 1997.

The critic Peter Davison praised this anthology in the Atlantic Monthly for uncovering an important chapter of American literary history: Bradley "introduces each selection with a brief identification of its author, and prefaces his anthology with introductory matter amounting to nearly a hundred pages of graceful, witty, and discriminating prose that combines aesthetic perception, historical understanding, and publishing shrewdness.
