Henry Walter Torney (November 12, 1881 – October 22, 1942) was an American football player and industrial engineer.

[1] In January 1910, Torney, then a first lieutenant in the U.S. Army, was arrested in New York City as part of a protest with the Shirtwaist Strikers.

Torney was dating Inez Milholland, the noted suffragette who was then a law student at New York University, and had attended the protest with her.

[9] Torney went on to become a successful industrial engineer with a "palatial summer residence" at Southampton, Long Island.

[10] In 1932, Torney, described in the press as a "millionaire industrial engineer," was the target of a blackmail plot by the former gardener at his Southampton estate.
