Iver Georg Lawson (July 1, 1879 – November 9, 1960) was an American professional track cyclist.

Iver Lawson was born on July 1, 1879, in Norrköping, Sweden to Lars Gustaf Larsson and Emma Sofia Sundberg.

[4] In 1905 Lawson also won the National Cycle Association's quarter-mile championship race at Vailsburg in Newark, New Jersey.

[5] In an incident, which occurred in February 1904 at an event in Australia, Major Taylor (an African American cyclist) was seriously injured on the final turn of a race when fellow competitor Lawson deliberately veered his bicycle toward Taylor and collided with his front wheel.

Taylor crashed and lay unconscious on the track before he was taken to a local hospital and later made a full recovery.
