Louis Daniel Laurie (November 19, 1917 – December 26, 2002) was an American professional boxer who competed in the 1936 Summer Olympics.

He remained in Germany two months and was presented with the Val Barker trophy for being the most scientific boxer in all classes that year.

After defeating Eddie Lander, he returned home, got his old job back pumping gas and gave up boxing for one year.

Then, heeding the advice of his friend, Max Minnich, once a promising heavyweight, Lou Laurie re-entered the boxing game - and won a six-round decision at the Ridgewood Grove.

Laurie returned to Europe and re-entered the ring briefly while serving in the Army during World War II.
