George Froeschel (9 March 1891 – 22 November 1979) was an Austrian novelist and screenwriter.

In 1943, he received two Academy Award nominations for co-writing screenplays for Mrs. Miniver and Random Harvest.

Georg Froeschel was born in 1891, the son of a Jewish banker in Vienna.

[citation needed] In 1936 he emigrated to the United States, where he first worked in the editorial office of Chicago's Coronet magazine.

His efforts to find a job in Hollywood's film industry were not successful until April 1939, when Sidney Franklin of MGM engaged him as screenwriter.
