Franklyn Curran "Lyn" Nofziger (June 8, 1924 – March 27, 2006) was an American journalist, conservative Republican political consultant and author.

When Gerald Ford won the Republican nomination, Nofziger assisted with the Ford-Dole campaign, which lost the election to Democrat Jimmy Carter.

With the run for the White House in full gear in 1979, Nofziger served as deputy chairman for finance for the Reagan for President organization.

In 1987, Nofziger was investigated for allegedly violating the Ethics in Government Act when he lobbied on behalf of Wedtech Corporation, a defense contractor.

He wrote four Western novels with a hero named Tackett, a drifter who falls into situations that compel him to rescue women in distress.

The Tackett series was an homage to Nofziger's friend, Louis L'Amour, author of The Sacketts and scores of other Westerns.

Nofziger died on March 27, 2006, at his home in Falls Church, Virginia, from kidney cancer, aged 81.
